As Amazon Leo expands into South Africa, we're excited to continue our collaboration to help bring reliable broadband to rural and underserved communities across Africa.

Together, Amazon Leo's satellite network and Vanu's rural connectivity expertise make it possible to reach places traditional networks can't.

Access to connectivity is about more than getting online. It opens the door to education, healthcare, financial services, entrepreneurship, and economic opportunity.

This collaboration is another important step toward closing the digital divide and creating a more connected future.

We're excited about what comes next.
