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.

Stem, Inc. Announces 1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split
HOUSTON, June 11, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Stem, Inc. (NYSE: STEM) (the "Company" or "Stem") today announced that it will implement a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on June 23, 2025 (the "Effective Time"), in order to regain compliance with the minimum average closing price requirement under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"). The Company's common stock is expected to begin trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis as of the opening of trading on June 23, 2025 under the Company's existing trading symbol "STEM" with new CUSIP number 85859N300. The Company's stockholders approved a reverse stock split at a ratio of between 1-for-10 and 1-for-20 at the Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 4, 2025. The Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") subsequently determined the final reverse split ratio on June 9, 2025. At the Effective Time, every 20 shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically combined into 1 share of common stock. This is expected to reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock from approximately 167 million to approximately 8.4 million. Also at the Effective Time, the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock will be reduced from 500,000,000 to 250,000,000. In addition, adjustments proportionate to the 1-for-20 split ratio will be made to the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Company's equity incentive plans; the number of shares issuable, and the applicable exercise prices under the Company's outstanding equity awards under such plans and any outstanding warrants; the conversion rates of outstanding convertible notes, in accordance with the related indentures; the strike prices of existing capped call options; the number of shares authorized for issuance pursuant to the convertible notes and capped call options; the shares reserved for issuance under any equity plan, outstanding equity award, convertible notes, capped call options or otherwise, and as otherwise described in the Company's proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 2025 (the "Proxy Statement"). The reverse stock split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder's percentage interest in equity, except to the extent that the reverse stock split would result in a stockholder owning a fractional share. No fractional shares will be issued, if, as a result of the reverse stock split, a stockholder would otherwise become entitled to a fractional share because the number of shares of common stock they hold before the reverse stock split is not evenly divisible by the split ratio. Instead, each such stockholder will be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu of a fractional share. Computershare Trust Company, N.A., is acting as the exchange agent and transfer agent for the reverse stock split. Stockholders holding their shares electronically are not required to take any action to receive post-split shares. Stockholders owning shares through a bank, broker or other nominee will have their positions adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split and will receive payment for any fractional shares in accordance with their respective bank's, broker's, or nominee's particular processes.
