Bangladesh officially launched Starlink satellite internet services through the Ministry of Posts, Telecommunications and Information Technology. Lauren Dreyer, Vice President of Global Operations at SpaceX, addressed media representatives during a Dhaka press briefing. She praised Bangladesh's government for swift action in establishing next-generation connectivity nationwide. Dreyer noted that discussions progressed to active deployment within months, with approvals completed by May 2025. The service enables internet access across remote villages and disaster-prone regions through high-speed satellite technology.

Starlink operates across nearly 150 countries and regions, providing infrastructure-independent connectivity solutions. The platform supports remote learning, telemedicine, and digital entrepreneurship opportunities for underserved communities. Local partnerships with Felicity IDC and Bangladesh Satellite Company Limited facilitate service implementation. Faiz Ahmad Taiyeb, the Chief Advisor's Special Assistant for telecommunications, answered journalist questions during the conference. Richard Griffiths, Shish Haider Chowdhury, Zahirul Islam, and Mohammad Shafiqul Alam attended the announcement event.
