October 9, 2025 (MLN): Amazon’s Low Earth
Orbit (LEO) satellite initiative, Project Kuiper, will launch high-speed
satellite broadband services in Pakistan by the end of 2026.
The shared information follows a
strategic meeting between Federal Minister for IT & Telecommunication Ms.
Shaza Fatima Khawaja and a delegation from Amazon’s Project Kuiper
team.
Project Kuiper, a multi-billion-dollar
global initiative by Amazon, aims to expand high-speed internet access to
underserved and remote regions around the world.
In Pakistan, the project plans to
establish ground infrastructure, including gateways and points of
presence (PoPs), to ensure reliable connectivity and seamless integration
with the national digital ecosystem.
Welcoming Amazon’s move, Minister
Shaza Fatima Khawaja stated:
“Project Kuiper’s entry into Pakistan
is a step forward in advancing digital inclusion and strengthening our
connectivity ecosystem. These investments align with the Government’s vision of
building a Digital Nation Pakistan where every citizen, regardless of
geography, has access to fast, affordable, and secure internet services.”
With a planned constellation of up
to 3,236 satellites, Project Kuiper will deliver broadband speeds of up to 400
Mbps through affordable user terminals.
The collaboration is expected to boost Pakistan’s IT sector, enhance innovation, and bridge the digital divide. The MoITT reaffirmed its commitment to fostering global partnerships that contribute to the Prime Minister’s vision for a modern, connected, and inclusive Digital Pakistan.
