Alghanim Industries Brings Starlink's Groundbreaking Satellite Internet to global markets
Bringing Space-Age Connectivity to Earth: Seamless streaming, video calls, remote work, education, and innovation now possible — anywhere on Earth
KUWAIT: What happens when one of the Middle East's most dynamic companies joins forces with a global space-tech pioneer? The future gets a fast-forward.
Alghanim Industries (Kutayba Alghanim Group), one of the largest privately-owned companies in the MENA region, has inked a landmark agreement with SpaceX's Starlink, the world's most advanced satellite internet provider.
Through this game-changing agreement, Alghanim Industries becomes an official global channel for Starlink's advanced low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation — the most sophisticated internet system ever deployed. This technology aims to shatter connectivity barriers, delivering high-speed, low-latency internet anywhere, to even the world's most isolated communities — whether you're in a bustling city, a desert camp, or sailing through open waters.
To drive this innovation, Alghanim Industries is unveiling Sama X, a bold new tech venture and authorized Starlink global reseller that brings Starlink technology to life for millions of potential users across the Middle East, North Africa, India, Turkey, Pakistan —and beyond.
'Our agreement with Starlink marks more than a milestone for connectivity—it's a leap toward a borderless digital future where education, innovation, and opportunity know no limits. We are committed to provide internet from space to unlock opportunities on Earth' said Kutayba Y. Alghanim, Executive Chairman of Alghanim Industries.

A Quantum Leap in Global Connectivity
Starlink isn't your typical internet provider. It's a space-powered constellation of over 7,000 low-Earth orbit satellites (LEO), delivering blazing-fast internet to over 5 million users in 118+ countries. Since 2020, SpaceX has launched more LEO satellites than all other providers combined, building an unparalleled infrastructure that delivers fiber-like speeds without the constraints of traditional ground-based networks.
Unlike traditional satellite systems orbiting thousands of kilometers above Earth, Starlink's LEO network operates much closer to the surface—dramatically reducing latency and delivering real-time internet experiences: crystal-clear video calls, immersive online gaming, uninterrupted streaming, and mission-critical business communications, all possible from anywhere.
A Universe of Possibilities
Starlink's technology is already transforming industries:
• Healthcare: Powering telemedicine for rural clinics
• Manufacturing: Enabling real-time data and diagnostics across global supply chains
• Telecommunications: Cost-effectively extend their networks into underserved areas, using satellite connectivity as a high-reliability backhaul
• Education & Employment: Allowing students and professionals in remote areas to engage in a digital economy
• Maritime: Delivering high-speed, low-latency internet to vessels worldwide, revolutionizing navigation, operations, and crew welfare at sea
Introducing Sama X: A Bridge to the Future
Born from Alghanim's legacy of innovation, Sama X is designed to be the region's trusted partner in next-generation connectivity. As a Starlink reseller, Sama X combines cutting-edge space technology with local market expertise, delivering not just the technology but a turnkey digital transformation solution—from customer onboarding, installation and activation to implementation and local support.
'With Sama X, we're not just connecting people—we're enabling a digitally prosperous future. We're building bridges to education, remote jobs, global markets, and innovation ecosystems,' said Mahmoud Samara, CEO of Alghanim Industries. 'From remote learning and telemedicine to remote work and cloud-based businesses, we're helping create a more connected, inclusive, and empowered world—starting now.'
A New Era from MENA to South Asia
The vision is already taking root. Starlink services have received regulatory approvals in Jordan, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain and Yemen, while Saudi Arabia has authorized Starlink for use in the aviation and maritime sectors—ushering in a new age of mobility and smart infrastructure.

Musk to exit US govt role after rare break with Trump
WASHINGTON: Billionaire Elon Musk on Wednesday announced he was leaving his role in US government, intended to reduce federal spending, shortly after his first major break with President Donald Trump over his signature spending bill. 'As my scheduled time as a Special Government Employee comes to an end, I would like to thank President Donald Trump for the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending,' he wrote on his social media platform X. 'The DOGE mission will only strengthen over time as it becomes a way of life throughout the government,' he added. The South African-born tech tycoon had said Trump's bill would increase the deficit and undermine the work of Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has fired tens of thousands of people. Musk — who was a constant presence at Trump's side before pulling back to focus on his Space X and Tesla businesses — also complained that DOGE had become a 'whipping boy' for dissatisfaction with the administration. 'I was disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, not just decreases it, and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing,' Musk said in an interview with CBS News, an excerpt of which aired late Tuesday. Trump's 'One Big, Beautiful Bill Act' — which passed the US House last week and now moves to the Senate — offers sprawling tax relief and spending cuts and is the centerpiece of his domestic agenda. But critics warn it will decimate healthcare and balloon the national deficit by as much as $4 trillion over a decade. 'A bill can be big, or it can be beautiful. But I don't know if it can be both. My personal opinion,' Musk said in the interview, which will be aired in full on Sunday. The White House sought to play down any differences over US government spending, without directly naming Musk. 'The Big Beautiful Bill is NOT an annual budget bill,' Trump's Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller said on Musk's social network, X, after the tech titan's comments aired. All DOGE cuts would have to be carried out through a separate bill targeting the federal bureaucracy, according to US Senate rules, Miller added. But Musk's comments represented a rare split with the Republican president whom he helped propel back to power, as the largest donor to his 2024 election campaign. Trump tasked Musk with cutting government spending as head of DOGE, but after a feverish start Musk announced in late April he was mostly stepping back to run his companies again. Musk complained in a separate interview with the Washington Post that DOGE, which operated out of the White House with a staff of young technicians, had become a lightning rod for criticism. 'DOGE is just becoming the whipping boy for everything,' Musk told the newspaper at the Starbase launch site in Texas ahead of Space X's latest launch on Tuesday. 'Something bad would happen anywhere, and we would get blamed for it even if we had nothing to do with it.' Musk blamed entrenched US bureaucracy for DOGE's failure to achieve all of its goals — although reports say his domineering style and lack of familiarity with the currents of Washington politics were also major factors. 'The federal bureaucracy situation is much worse than I realized,' he said. 'I thought there were problems, but it sure is an uphill battle trying to improve things in DC, to say the least.' Musk has previously admitted that he did not achieve all his goals with DOGE even though tens of thousands of people were removed from government payrolls and several departments were gutted or shut down. Musk's own businesses suffered in the meantime. Protesters against the cost-cutting targeted Tesla dealerships while arsonists even torched a few of the electric vehicles, and the firm's profits slumped. 'People were burning Teslas. Why would you do that? That's really uncool,' Musk told the Post. Musk has also been focusing on Space X after a series of fiery setbacks to his dreams of colonizing Mars — the latest of which came on Tuesday when its prototype Starship exploded over the Indian Ocean. The tycoon last week also said he would pull back from spending his fortune on politics, having spent around a quarter of a billion dollars to support Trump. – AFP
