Fueled by a vibrant digital ecosystem, the nation's digital economy is projected to leap from $24 billion to $35 billion by 2025. Leading this transformation is the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), which has connected over 250,000 users in partnership with Kacific Broadband Satellites Group and various Internet service providers. Additionally, Kacific provides connectivity to 2,000 businesses across diverse industries such as tourism, agri-fisheries, and finance in the Philippines. This commitment aligns with the national government's vision of prioritizing digital transformation, championed by the DICT.
As the largest Ka-band operator in the Asia-Pacific region, Kacific is pivotal in driving the digital revolution across the Philippines' 7,640 islands. Using its geostationary satellite, Kacific1, the company delivers accessible and affordable next-generation satellite broadband services, significantly impacting the nation's connectivity landscape.
