🛰️ Industry Update: Hello, Amazon Leo! 🛰️

The satellite landscape is evolving fast! Amazon has officially rebranded its LEO satellite initiative, formerly Project Kuiper, as Amazon Leo—a simple nod to the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) network powering its mission.

This move signals the next major phase of competition and innovation in global connectivity, which directly impacts our strategic planning for Africa. More LEO players mean more options and more pressure for cost-effective, high-speed services.
