According to Airtel's statement, the aim of this joint venture is to explore how Starlinks can improve and expand Airtel services, as well as to supplement Airtel's skills in the Indian market as a direct customer and business services of SpaceX.
As part of this agreement, the equipment needed to use Starlink will be available at Airtel retail stores and business clients to provide Sterling Services to Airtel. The goal of the two companies is to connect the communities, schools and health centers located in India's most isolated rural regions.
According to the statement, Starlink can help improve and expand Airtel network in the country. In addition, SpaceX will be allowed to use Airtel's ground network infrastructure and other resources in India.
Gopal Vittle, Managing Director and Vice Chairman of Bharti Airtel in this regard, said: “Cooperation with SpaceX is an important milestone to deliver Starlink to Airtel customers. This move sheds light on the company's devotion to the next generation satellite connection. This partnership will increase Airtel's ability to supply world-class high-speed broadband in India's most remote region. ”
