Vodafone PNG Announces Starlink Enterprise Reseller Appointment and PGK 400 million Network Investment to Accelerate National Connectivity and Digital Transformation.

Vodafone Papua New Guinea is pleased to announce its appointment as an Authorized Enterprise Reseller for Starlink, marking a major milestone in the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering innovative, resilient, and future-ready connectivity solutions across the country. This strategic partnership reinforces Vodafone PNG’s leadership in digital infrastructure and enhances its ability to provide high-speed, reliable internet access to businesses, government agencies, and communities nationwide.

The collaboration enables Vodafone PNG to integrate Starlink’s advanced low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite technology into its enterprise connectivity portfolio, complementing its existing mobile network services. Starlink’s high-speed, low-latency satellite internet is designed to deliver reliable connectivity in remote and hard-to-reach locations, where traditional telecommunications infrastructure can be both challenging and costly to deploy. This capability will play a critical role in extending coverage across Papua New Guinea, bridging long-standing connectivity gaps and improving access to digital services in underserved areas.

Vodafone PNG’s appointment as an authorized enterprise reseller means customers benefit from a fully managed, end-to-end service model that covers solution design, deployment, network integration, and ongoing support. Backed by strong local expertise, Vodafone PNG delivers tailored connectivity solutions that enable organizations to seamlessly integrate satellite services into their operations, whether as a primary connection or as a resilient backup, thereby strengthening business continuity and operational performance.

Commenting on the partnership, Pradeep Lal, Regional Chief Executive Officer of Vodafone PNG, said, “This partnership with Starlink is a transformative step in our journey to deliver world-class, cost-effective connectivity solutions across Papua New Guinea. By combining our strong mobile and network footprint with Starlink’s satellite technology, we are enabling high-speed, reliable internet access wherever our customers operate, particularly in rural and previously underserved communities. This is a boost to our vision of bridging the digital divide and unlocking new economic and social opportunities for Papua New Guinean.”

The announcement builds on Vodafone PNG’s ongoing network expansion program, supported by a PGK 400 million capital expenditure investment aimed at enhancing network coverage, reliability, and customer experience. This investment supports the continued rollout of infrastructure nationwide, enhancing data and voice capacity, delivering improved service quality, and expanding access to reliable and cost-effective telecommunications services. This project is expected to be completed by December this year. The addition of Starlink’s satellite capability further strengthens this investment by extending Vodafone’s reach beyond the limits of traditional terrestrial networks and accelerating nationwide connectivity outcomes.

Businesses, government agencies, and organizations interested in leveraging Starlink-enabled connectivity solutions are encouraged to contact their Account Managers or Vodafone Business Team for further information and tailored service offerings.
