Problem
Rural and remote areas across Southeast Asia often lack terrestrial broadband infrastructure, leaving an estimated 50 % of the population without reliable internet access. This digital gap hampers education, healthcare delivery, and economic participation in those communities.
Solution
Angkasa‑X delivers Satellite‑as‑a‑Service (SaaS) by operating a low‑Earth‑orbit (LEO) satellite constellation that provides broadband connectivity directly to underserved locations. The company partners with regional telecommunications operators, enabling them to offer affordable internet plans without building new ground networks. Connectivity is provisioned through a cloud‑based platform that allocates bandwidth on demand and integrates with existing carrier billing and customer‑management systems. By using LEO satellites, latency is reduced compared with traditional geostationary services, supporting interactive applications such as e‑learning and tele‑medicine. The service aligns with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, targeting improvements in education, health, and economic opportunity for the region’s most isolated populations.
Target Audience
Primary customers are telecommunications operators, government agencies, and non‑profit organizations in ASEAN seeking to extend affordable broadband to rural and remote populations.
