Problem
Over one billion people lack access to modern energy services, and billions more lack internet connectivity, creating barriers to healthcare, education, and economic opportunities in developing countries. Traditional wired infrastructure is often too challenging or costly to deploy in remote, off-the-grid communities.

The company designs and operates high-uptime systems that provide last-mile service in remote areas. Kingo leverages internet-of-things (IoT) technology to enable consumer goods and financial services companies to expand their reach to these previously inaccessible areas, while also facilitating access to essential services like education and healthcare for the communities themselves.
