The American SpaceX satellite Internet company Starlink plans to start operating in the Georgian market. Ekaterine Imadedze, a member of the Georgian National Communications Commission, spoke about the negotiations with the company. According to her, the company considers the main market of its service to be those areas of Georgia where there is currently no broadband Internet coverage.
As Ekaterine Imadedze stated, according to Starlink representatives, they know that the prices presented by the company may not be the most competitive, although in this regard the company does not rule out offering some subsidies.
Starlink satellite internet is currently available in 36 countries worldwide. As of May 2022, the company is providing Internet through more than 2,200 mini-satellites.
Satellite Internet can be received through a special device. The cost of this service in the US market is $110 per month, which includes a one-time fee of $599 for the receiving antenna.
