Starlink, the satellite internet service provided by SpaceX, has been making waves in the tech industry since its launch in 2018. With its promise of high-speed internet access to even the most remote areas of the world, Starlink has the potential to revolutionize the way we connect with each other and the world around us. In Ukraine, a country with a significant rural population, Starlink could play a crucial role in empowering developing communities.
For years, residents of rural Ukraine have struggled with limited internet access, hindering their ability to access information, education, and economic opportunities. According to a report by the World Bank, only 42% of Ukrainians have access to the internet, with even lower rates in rural areas.
