Israel’s sole satellite communications provider, Spacecom, doesn’t only work with Israeli satellite television provider, Yes, to supply Israelis with entertainment, it also utilizes its highly-advanced Amos-17 satellite to provide health and educational services to underserved communities in Africa. Spacecom is a satellite operator and service provider which possesses its own fleet that streams broadband television and internet services from space across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and most recently, Africa. The company is publicly traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, and is one of the oldest and first to join the Israeli space tech ecosystem. While populated areas rely on cable and fiber optics to provide broadband services due to the lower price, satellites are rapidly becoming cheaper, and may be a more reliable alternative as they are constantly able to transmit data and aren't affected by terrestrial conditions such as natural disasters and power outages. The Amos fleet are geostationary satellites, meaning they are located above the equator, over the areas above Spain, Ukraine, the U.S. East Coast, and Africa.
