Eutelsat and Mercury, a subsidiary of Sonangol Group and leading provider of telecommunications services in Angola, have signed a new multi-year, multi-million agreement for Eutelsat’s LEO connectivity services.
Building on the historic partnership between the two companies, Mercury, previously known as MSTelcom will continue to expand the reach of Eutelsat’s LEO services for enterprise, public sector, offshore and telecom customers across Angola.
Eutelsat is the only licensed LEO operator in Angola today and already has a significant operational presence in the country via its local partners. Through investments in local infrastructure, including a ground station and local point of presence (PoP), and its long-standing commitment to the country, Eutelsat has positioned itself as a leading satellite connectivity provider in Angola, supporting the delivery of low-latency connectivity services across the country and the wider region.
“This new commitment from Mercury reflects the growing demand for Eutelsat’s LEO services in Angola and the continued success of our longstanding partnership. Together, we are expanding access to secure, low-latency connectivity across the country, helping enterprise, public sector, offshore, and telecom customers strengthen network resilience and reach locations beyond the coverage of traditional infrastructure.”
– Philippe Baudrier, VP Africa, Eutelsat
“This new agreement reflects the strength of our partnership with Eutelsat and the value that LEO connectivity brings to our customers. Together, we are expanding the range of connectivity solutions available across Angola and helping organizations meet evolving communications requirements.”
– Francisco Pinto Leite, CEO, Mercury
