What Starlink means for WhyAfrica
More African countries are signing up to Starlink, Elon Musk’s superfast satellite internet company.
By Leon Louw founder of WhyAfrica and editor of the WhyAfrica magazine
While a handful of African countries have already joined the Starlink network, more are getting ready to sign up in 2025.
So, what does it mean for WhyAfrica and why are we super excited? Well, it means that we can travel more often to even more African countries and provide you with more on- the-ground, relevant information about the countries that we visit.
Travelling to more remote regions
It also means we can travel to more project sites and more remote locations across Africa. Best of all is that we will be able to livestream our WhyAfrica Road Trips through Africa to all our WhyAfrica partners, members, sponsors and advertisers!
Remember, you can only access our livestream channel if you are a WhyAfrica partner, member, sponsor or advertiser. In the future, thanks to Starlink and new technology, you’ll be able to join us on a virtual WhyAfrica Road Trip and best of all, if you are a member, you might be able to join us virtually on our site visits, sit in on our interviews and even ask questions during our interviews.
WhyAfrica’s African office
What did Starlink mean for us on this year’s Road Trip? It made it possible to put together our newsletters and magazines even in the most remote locations on earth. Best of all is that we could do it while sitting in our office next to the campfire under the stars (an Elon’s satellites).
During our road trip in August and September WhyAfrica published its 98th newsletter. To subscribe to our free bi-weekly newsletters and magazines, head to the WhyAfrica website, your one-stop shop for on the ground information and business intelligence about Africa.
