Jio also joined hands with SpaceX – Jio also joined hands with spacex
Jio platforms have announced a similar partnership just a day after Bharti Airtel announced an agreement with SpaceX to bring Starlink’s satellite communication services to India. Both the deals are the same and once America’s satellite firm gets all the rights to trade in India, telecom companies will distribute starlink equipment and offer Starlink services to their customers. Analysts say that despite these deals, satellite-based communication services do not expect a major upheaval in the market of mobile services in short term.
Jio platforms have stated that it will not only provide starlink equipment in its retail outlets, but will also create a mechanism for support and activation of Customer Service Installation. The company’s press release said, “Starlinks, GeoAerfiber and JioFiber makes the complete and economical way by providing high speed internet to the most challenging places.”
It states that both sides will try to take advantage of the status of Starlink as the world’s largest mobile operator in terms of data traffic as the world’s largest mobile operator and a leading low meaning or or -to -world services across the country.
Reliance Jio’s group CEO Matthew Uman said, “It is Jio’s top priority to ensure that every Indian (wherever they live anywhere) have access to affordable and high-speed broadband.”
Meanwhile, Bharti Enterprises President Sunil Bharti Mittal has said that telecommunications and satellite companies have noticed their call to unite and double their strength to fulfill their strength so far, the mission of connecting the areas as well as the oceans and the sky can be completed. He argued last week at the Mobile World Congress held in Barcelona, saying that ‘it’s not time to fight’, competition should be on brands and services, not on the creation of single capital infrastructure.
