Asia-Pacific Satellite Internet Market Report 2025-2032, Featuring AST Spacemobile, Eutelsat, Globalstar, Inmarsat, IPStar, Kacific, Kuiper, Lynk, Measat, NBN, OneWeb, SpaceX, Starlink and Viasat
DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 14, 2025--
The 'Asia-Pacific Satellite Internet Market Report, 2025-2032" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Asia Pacific has seen rapid growth in satellite broadband connectivity, driven by the region's unique geography, increasing demand for internet access, and advancements in technology. Key factors in this evolution include technological innovations, changes in regulations, and the drive of industry players.
In 2023, there were approximately 616k satellite broadband subscribers in the region. Australia had the most subscribers, where Starlink dominated, taking users from NBN. India came second with legacy providers like Hughes Communications and Nelco with significant subscribers. By December 2023, Starlink had launched in 60 countries globally, with a significant presence in the Asia Pacific.
The report covers the latest developments with 5G NTN (Non-Terrestrial Networks) which integrates the fifth generation of mobile networks with entities like satellites, high-altitude platforms, and unmanned aerial systems, enabling broader and more resilient communication. Designed to address geographic connectivity limitations, it acts as an alternative in rural or challenging terrains, and serves as a backup during disasters. On the technical front, 5G NTN operates on various frequency bands and promises competitive latency due to LEO satellites. It has potential applications for IoT, broadband distribution, and device-centric communication.
Despite its promise, challenges include the capital-intensive nature of satellite deployments, regulatory concerns, and competition from advancing terrestrial networks. As for providers, Starlink, AST Space Mobile, Kuiper, and others have diverse offerings. The distinction between geostationary orbit (GEO) and low earth orbit (LEO) satellites is crucial; while GEOs cover larger areas, LEOs, being closer to Earth, offer lower latency but require more satellites for comprehensive coverage.
In terms of revenue, the research estimates that satellite Internet operators will generate over USD1 billion million in 2024 following Starlink's regional launch. This figure is forecasted to grow significantly by 2030, with an average annual growth rate of 50.2%. However, the growth of the satellite broadband market is intertwined with regulatory challenges and the limited availability of spectrum.
As demand for spectral frequencies grows, competition becomes fierce. Different nations have unique regulatory frameworks, and navigating these regulations is challenging. Satellite broadband providers face stringent rules to prevent interference with existing services. Thus, entering this market means not just having the technology but also understanding various licensing requirements. As the need for spectrum resources grows with technological advancements, efficient strategies, international collaborations, and dynamic allocation will be essential in the next decade.
Starlink, under SpaceX aims to provide global high-speed, low-latency internet connectivity via a satellite constellation in low Earth orbit (LEO). As of September 2023, over 5,000 satellites have been launched out of a proposed 12,000 to 42,000, with launches happening every 4-5 days. Each satellite has a lifespan of approximately 3.5 years. An upcoming 'Gen 2" network promises enhanced speeds and user capacity.
In just 3 years, Starlink has become the leading entity in the global broadband satellite market. The report states that by September 2023, Starlink had nearly 4 million subscribers globally, with the largest markets being in North America and about 430k subscribers in the Asia Pacific region.
In the Asia-Pacific region, Starlink has formed partnerships with companies like KDDI in Japan, Data Lake and PT&T in the Philippines and Telstra, Vocus, and Optus in Australia for various services such as 4G & 5G backhaul and broadband resale.
Satellite broadband's potential in the Asia Pacific is immense. By diving deep into its market dynamics, socioeconomic impacts, environmental considerations, technological evolution, and the importance of policies and collaboration, this report offers a comprehensive overview of the opportunities and challenges the region faces.

Wolters Kluwer executive delivers keynote on the future of integrated tech stacks and agentic AI at AICPA Engage 2025
MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Wolters Kluwer Tax and Accounting (TAA) executive, Cathy Rowe, Senior Vice President and Segment Leader, U.S. Professional Market, delivered a compelling keynote address today at AICPA Engage 2025, held at the Aria Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. Her remarks focused on the accelerating pace of technological change and how integrated tech stacks and agentic AI are reshaping the accounting profession for audit and tax professionals. In her keynote, Rowe emphasized that the rate of technological change is now faster than ever, urging firms to embrace both sustaining and disruptive innovation. She shared insights from Wolters Kluwer's 'Future Ready Accountant' study, which found that 77% of firms experienced growth last year, yet 40% cited keeping up with new technology as their top challenge. Rowe highlighted that firms using fully integrated solutions reported revenue increases of 10% or more, underscoring the ROI of strategic tech investments. She outlined four key pillars for leveraging AI in modern firms: Data-Driven Firm Management – Using AI to generate real-time insights and automate reporting. Increased Efficiencies and Capacity – Streamlining workflows and optimizing staff allocation. Proactive Risk Management – Monitoring tax and audit data to identify and mitigate risks. Enhanced Client Service – Shifting from compliance to advisory roles through AI-driven insights and automation. A central theme of Rowe's address was the emergence of agentic AI—a transformative evolution from traditional automation to intelligent agents that act autonomously with human oversight. She explained how agentic AI spans four key categories: Taskers, Automators, Collaborators, and Orchestrators. These agents can classify documents, manage workflows, guide professionals through complex tasks, and even orchestrate entire audit or tax preparation processes. Crucially, this next-generation AI is made possible through open integration platforms, enabling firms of all sizes to benefit from seamless automation, data interoperability, and intelligent decision-making. 'Agentic AI is not just a buzzword—it's a strategic enabler,' Rowe stated. 'It empowers professionals to work at the top of their credentials, enhances client service, and creates competitive advantage. With open integration APIs, firms can build intelligent, responsive systems that adapt in real time.' Wolters Kluwer is actively advancing the integration of agentic AI across its suite of tax and accounting solutions as part of its long-term innovation strategy centered on firm intelligence. Building on more than a decade of AI investment, these enhancements will empower professionals to automate complex workflows, enhance decision-making, and deliver greater value to clients. Customers can expect to begin experiencing these next-generation capabilities in the near future, reinforcing Wolters Kluwer's commitment to helping firms stay future-ready. Rowe concluded by encouraging firms to assess their current workflows, evaluate integration opportunities, and invest in talent and change management to become truly future-ready.
