More than eight million Peruvians live in rural communities with no broadband internet access. Starting in 2023, Peru's first dedicated satellite, Andesat 1, will help people communicate better, giving them access to services that they don’t have right now, like health systems, education systems, and even the ability to create and run their own businesses.
Astranis is building small, low-cost telecommunications satellites to connect the four billion people on Earth who currently do not have access to the internet. By owning and operating its satellites and offering them to customers as a turnkey solution, Astranis is able to provide bandwidth-as-a-service at a fraction of the cost of legacy providers, unlocking previously unreachable markets.
