PLDT Enterprise and Starlink Expand Internet Access Nationwide
A First in the Philippines: PLDT Enterprise Becomes Starlink Reseller
PLDT Enterprise has officially become the first and only telco in the Philippines authorized to resell Starlink, marking a major leap forward in the country’s connectivity landscape.
This isn’t just a partnership—it’s a strategic move that brings high-speed, low-latency satellite internet to areas where traditional infrastructure struggles to reach. From remote provinces to mobile industries, Starlink’s Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite technology is now part of PLDT Enterprise’s arsenal. PLDT Enterprise and Starlink now combines to improve connectivity.
For businesses operating in underserved regions, this means one thing: no more settling for unreliable connections.
Bridging the Digital Divide with Satellite Power
Starlink’s LEO satellites orbit closer to Earth than traditional satellites, enabling faster data transmission and lower latency.
PLDT Enterprise is leveraging this to support industries that have long been left behind by fiber and wireless rollouts. Think agriculture, logistics, banking, disaster response, education, and healthcare—sectors that need reliable internet but often operate in areas where signal bars are more myth than reality.
Even transport hubs and mobile operations can now stay connected while in transit or stationed in low-connectivity zones.
Resilience in the Face of Outages
One of Starlink’s biggest advantages? Redundancy.
According to Nico Alcoseba, First Vice President and Head of Product Management and Global Capacity Strategy at PLDT Enterprise, Starlink can route traffic to other gateways in different locations.
So if a terrestrial outage hits, Starlink steps in. This is a game-changer for businesses where downtime isn’t just inconvenient—it’s costly.
A Stronger, Smarter Connectivity Portfolio
Starlink doesn’t replace PLDT’s existing infrastructure—it enhances it.
With fiber, wireless, and managed services already in place, PLDT Enterprise now offers a multi-layered connectivity solution that’s more robust than ever.
This includes advanced services like:
- Managed SD-WAN
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- Cybersecurity solutions
- Data center services
Starlink adds reach and resilience, making PLDT Enterprise’s portfolio more adaptable to diverse operational demands.
Supporting Sustainability and Inclusive Growth
This isn’t just about faster internet—it’s about nation-building.
PLDT Enterprise’s Starlink integration aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly those focused on infrastructure, economic growth, and digital inclusion.
By expanding access to reliable internet, PLDT is helping communities participate in the digital economy, access education, and improve healthcare delivery.
It’s tech with a purpose—and a long-term vision.
Empowering Enterprises Across the Archipelago
Mitch Locsin, First Vice President and Head of Enterprise Core Business at PLDT and Smart, summed it up best:
“Through the integration of Starlink, we are extending the reach and resilience of our connectivity solutions, especially in areas where traditional infrastructure is limited.”
This means businesses can operate with greater agility, drive innovation, and accelerate digital transformation—no matter where they’re located.
From Luzon to Mindanao, connectivity is no longer a privilege. It’s becoming a standard.
What This Means for Businesses
For companies in remote areas, Starlink via PLDT Enterprise offers:
- High-speed internet without fiber dependency
- Reliable backup during outages
- Improved operational efficiency
- Access to cloud services and global markets
It’s not just a tech upgrade—it’s a competitive advantage.
A Future-Ready Philippines
With Starlink’s LEO satellites joining PLDT’s fiber and 5G networks, the Philippines is taking a bold step toward universal connectivity.
This initiative reinforces PLDT’s commitment to digital empowerment, economic resilience, and inclusive innovation.
And for businesses, it’s a clear signal: the future is connected—and PLDT Enterprise is leading the way.
