In a landmark move to bridge Pakistan’s digital divide, Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL), Telco Integrators Pvt Ltd (TI), and Kacific Broadband Satellites Group have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to roll out high-speed satellite-powered internet, broadband, and voice services across the country.
This three-way strategic alliance brings together PTCL’s nationwide telecom infrastructure, Telco Integrators’ deployment and technical expertise, and Kacific’s advanced satellite broadband capabilities to deliver cost-effective, reliable connectivity to even the most underserved and remote regions of Pakistan.
PTCL will provide the backbone of the project through its expansive terrestrial fiber network—connecting Khyber to Karachi and extending internationally via submarine cables. Telco Integrators will serve as the local enabler of Kacific’s services, helping operationalize and manage the delivery of broadband access to telecom operators, enterprises, and SMEs. Together, the partners aim to scale access to integrated connectivity solutions that cater to Pakistan’s unique geographic and infrastructural challenges.
“This partnership represents a major milestone in enhancing digital connectivity across Pakistan,” said Aamer Ejaz, Group Vice President, Carrier Solutions Business, PTCL. He further added, “PTCL will play its role in extending impactful services to areas previously beyond reach, acting as a catalyst for socio-economic development and digital inclusion.”
“Expanding our footprint in Pakistan reflects Kacific’s core mission to leave no one behind in the digital era,” said Christian Patouraux, CEO of Kacific. He further stated: “Together with PTCL and Telco Integrators, we can drive meaningful change through satellite-powered connectivity.”
“Our strength lies in turning advanced technology into practical, localized solutions and customer satisfaction,” said Imtiaz Ahmed Laghari, CEO of Telco Integrators. He added, “This collaboration allows us to deliver high-performance satellite services with on-ground expertise, making connectivity more accessible and dependable across Pakistan.”
With over half of Pakistan’s population still lacking access to reliable internet, this partnership is poised to fuel the country’s digital transformation by extending broadband to marginalized communities, unlocking economic opportunities, and empowering public services through inclusive digital infrastructure.
