Elon Musk’s Starlink Receives License Approval in Zimbabwe | Firstpost Africa
Zimbabwe has officially granted an operating license to Starlink. The country’s President Emmerson Mnangagwa said Starlink will provide services through its sole and exclusive local partner, IMC Communications. It is expected to result in high-speed, low-cost internet throughout Zimbabwe. According to the World Bank, only 34.8% of Zimbabwe's population had access to the internet as of 2021. However, the entry of Starlink will enhance connectivity even in the most remote areas. The approval comes after Starlink’s services were earlier shut down in the country. Last month, the country's telecommunications regulator suspended the firm's operation until it obtained licensing approval. This comes as Elon Musk’s firm is looking to expand its foothold in the world’s second-largest continent.
