Expansion of Starlink in Senegal
The company Starlink has announced the launch of its satellite internet service across the entire territory of Senegal. According to the official account of the service, high-speed connection with low latency is now fully available to all residents of the country. As of early 2026, the affordable cost and high performance of Starlink have drawn significant interest among local businesses and educational institutions, anticipating a boost in digital engagement and economic development.
Experts predict a transformative impact on Senegal’s communication infrastructure, particularly in remote and underserved areas. Both governmental sectors and private enterprises are optimistic about the potential enhancements in connectivity.
Recent Developments in Bolivia
Earlier this week, it was announced that Elon Musk’s satellite internet has been launched across the entire territory of Bolivia, appearing in mountains, valleys, and remote settlements. Local reports indicate that Starlink’s infrastructure now covers even the most isolated Andean regions, promising unprecedented access for indigenous communities and rural entrepreneurs.
The introduction of Starlink in Bolivia is expected to stimulate socio-economic opportunities, facilitating access to global markets and online education, enhancing local knowledge economies.
Milestones Achieved in Brazil
In Brazil, a significant milestone has been reached in the development of Starlink’s satellite broadband access, providing stable high-speed internet connection to more than a million people – even in areas where reliable connections were previously non-existent or practically unavailable. Recent statistics show over 1.2 million Brazilians accessing the service as of January 2026.
This development resonates with the government’s efforts to digitize rural areas and support mobile learning initiatives, potentially reducing inequality in digital access.
Maritime and Aviation Connection
The company Goodwood Ship Management, involved in ship management and based in Singapore, has implemented Starlink satellite communication for its entire fleet thanks to a partnership with company Navarino. By 2026, this technology aids vessels of various sizes to maintain reliable communication even in the most isolated sea routes.
Starlink rapidly expands its presence in the skies: 34 airlines worldwide have joined the satellite internet service for passengers, with 21 signing agreements just in the last three months. Airlines like Delta and Southwest in the United States have reported increased customer satisfaction due to reliable in-flight internet service.
