Episode Details

SpaceX is gearing up to deliver 5G directly to phones via satellites, promising to eliminate dead zones worldwide — a massive move that could disrupt the billions-dollar mobile internet market. Local telecom giant Digicel is watching closely, warning that innovation must come with fair competition and consistent regulation. Already dominating the Caribbean’s telecom scene with millions of subscribers, Digicel and FLOW are wary of SpaceX’s Starlink, which already holds local licenses. SpaceX plans major upgrades to its satellite network by 2027, but regulatory hurdles and unclear regional partnerships mean the full impact remains uncertain — and everyone’s waiting to see how this sky-high tech shake-up plays out.
