"Internet access is increasingly vital for sustained economic, as well as socio-educational development, and satellites are particularly well-suited to bridge any "digital divide" between areas where the Internet is accessible via terrestrial means and others where it is not. The capacity on SES satellites is vital to the continued expansion and sustainability of our network."Harry Aucamp, CEO of iWay Africa
