Following approval from Cape Verde's regulatory authority ARME in October, Starlink now offers residential services starting at CVE 5,000 ($48) monthly for standard connectivity and CVE 3,500 ($34) for a lite plan, with hardware costs ranging from CVE 20,000 ($191) for the Mini dish to CVE 39,000 ($373) for standard equipment. While Starlink continues its African expansion with recent launches in Cape Verde and Chad, the company faces regulatory challenges across the continent. Despite these challenges, Starlink plans further expansion in 2024 and 2025, with scheduled launches in Mauritius, Angola, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Comoros, and Seychelles. #Starlink #SpaceX #SatelliteInternet #CapeVerde #DigitalConnectivity #WestAfrica #TechInnovation #GlobalExpansion #InternetAccess #AfricaTech

Starlink Cleared For Launch In Botswana Following Presidential Meeting. Botswana has granted a license to SpaceX's Starlink, allowing the satellite internet service to operate in the country. This decision comes three months after the Botswana Communications and Regulatory Authority (BOCRA) initially rejected Starlink’s application due to missing information, which led to a ban on Starlink products. The turnaround followed a meeting between the SpaceX team and President Mokgweetsi Masisi at the Africa-US Business Forum in Dallas, Texas. President Masisi set a two-week deadline for the regulator to expedite the licensing process, emphasizing the importance of bridging the connectivity gap in Botswana, especially in remote areas where conventional broadband is unavailable. With an internet penetration rate of 87%, Botswana still faces some of the highest data prices in Africa. The introduction of Starlink is expected to provide more affordable and reliable internet access, particularly benefiting farmers and residents in remote regions. #StarlinkBotswana #SpaceXConnectivity #BridgingDigitalDivide #AffordableInternetAccess #SatelliteInternetBotswana

[SpaceX’s Starlink Internet Service Available in Madagascar] Starlink, the satellite telecommunications company, has officially announced on its X page (formerly Twitter) that its high-speed, low-latency internet service is now commercially available in Madagascar. The journey towards this milestone began in April 2024 when Tahina Razafindramalo, Madagascar’s Minister of Digital Development, Posts, and Telecommunications, revealed that Starlink had secured the necessary approvals from the Malagasy government. The company was in the final stages of setting up its infrastructure and completing all regulatory requirements to obtain a satellite operator license. The commercial launch was strategically scheduled for the third quarter of 2024, aligning with Starlink’s goal to expand its global internet coverage. This development is expected to enhance internet accessibility and connectivity in Madagascar significantly. Starlink has successfully obtained regulatory approval to offer its services in 13 African countries. This significant milestone paves the way for the company to expand its high-speed, low-latency internet offerings across the continent, aiming to enhance connectivity in underserved regions.
