As Beamlink's mission is to help cover the next 3.5B+ people with high-speed 4G and 5G coverage, it was wonderful to be able to attend the inaugural India Mobile Congress in New Delhi. India has seen one of the fastest expansions in mobile Internet in modern history, with over 900 million people having access to high-speed 4G or 5G coverage, truly inspiring. In the words of PM Narendra Modi, who inaugurated the conference, the price of a data package is now less than a cup of tea. Thank you to Jio, airtel, and Vodafone Idea Limited for meeting with us to discuss bringing the Bentocell technology to new rural and urban areas and establishing proof of concept projects. We were honored to meet with Reet sundaram from the Department of Telecommunications ( DOT ) and hear about how Fiber to the Home projects are progressing in rural areas and how wireless can be layered on top of fiber infrastructure. Beamlink's Bentocell has already been deployed in 4 countries, and we hope to add India to the list very soon. Stay on the lookout for two new Bentocell products, making their debut in 2026. #beamlink #telecom #5g #StartUps #Internet #Infrastructure

About us
Hi, we’re Beamlink. We help carriers expand into rural and disaster-prone areas, unlocking connectivity for 3.5 billion potential subscribers and empowering communities with better access to education, healthcare, and more. Our ultra-efficient towers, called Bentocells, consume less power than a lightbulb and self-calibrate upon setup—eliminating the need for existing infrastructure and simplifying network management. This breakthrough reduces deployment costs to just 1% per area compared to traditional networks. Join us in connecting the world—Internet for everyone, everywhere!

And that’s a wrap to Beamlink’s time at the 80th UN General Assembly! Our (newly promoted) Head of Engineering, Simran Saxena, and our CEO and cofounder, Mateo Abascal, spent the past few days at UN HQ in New York. We’re grateful to the International Telecommunication Union for the invitation, and had a great time discussing our #Partner2Connect pledge with stakeholders from around the world in telecom, disaster management, human rights, and more. At the Digital@UNGA anchor event, we heard about global advances in digital identity, disaster mitigation and recovery, access to diverse content, and other topics of digital inclusivity. One theme brought up by almost every leader, however, was connectivity and the ethical threat of AI. Gen AI in particular is one of the most life-changing technologies in recent history, and given that it relies on connectivity (and likely always will), it serves to also be the most dividing technology in the near future. The equity gap around the world will only grow with the advent and distribution of Gen AI – that is, unless someone can solve the connectivity gap worldwide… #beamlink #unga #itu #un #telecom #connectivity

🚀 Exciting developments with our friends at TQ-Group! Since 2024, Beamlink has been sourcing TQ-Group’s ultra-reliable system-on-modules (SOMs) to power every Bentocell — designed for over a decade of continuous service. Last month, our CTO Arpad Kovesdy visited TQ-Group’s global HQ in Delling, Germany to 🔹 Tour the factory where our SOMs are made 🔹 Explore new product innovations, from advanced AI engines to cutting-edge security features 🔹 Learn more about how TQ-Group’s capabilities — from PCB manufacturing to final product assembly and certifications — could support Beamlink as we scale And of course, the trip wouldn't be complete without joining TQ-Group’s legendary summer party — complete with a drone show and even a crane ride (yes, really 🏗️) We’re also looking forward to TQ-Group demoing the Bentocell at Embedded World in November! #SystemOnModule #Innovation #Manufacturing #EmbeddedSystems #Beamlink #TQGroup

🇳🇬 Hello from Nigeria! Our CEO Mateo Abascal and Head of Sales Matt Leader spent a week with our partners at UnoTelos Group Limited who hosted us for an incredible series of conversations with the Nigerian Communications Commission, MTN Nigeria, and other stakeholders working to expand connectivity and infrastructure across Nigeria. Special thanks to Jude Egbokwu, Adam Crooke, Mayowa Adekoya, and Taofik O. Adeniji from UnoTelos for hosting us and organizing everything. We're excited to soon be expanding rural (and some urban) cell coverage in Nigeria! #RuralConnectivity #Nigeria #Telecom #Beamlink #UnoTelos

🇨🇭And we're back from Geneva, Switzerland, where Beamlink was invited by the United Nations International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to exhibit at the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). We showcased how carriers are using Bentocells to expand coverage and reach places previously "too expensive to cover." As a proud ITU member, it was an honor to join global leaders shaping the future of connectivity. Over the week, we met with ministers, regulators, and telcos from every continent discussing how to bridge the digital divide with scalable, sustainable infrastructure. Huge thanks to the ITU for putting together a brilliant event — and to everyone we met with — the follow up calls have already been overwhelming, especially in the Pacific and Caribbean Islands. 📡 Bring wireless anywhere isn't just a slogan — it's happening! #WSIS #UN #ITU #telecom #connectivity #digitalinclusion #partner2connect #bentocell #beamlink

Got to share a bit about Beamlink at our recent trip to a UN Conference in Geneva on Internet connectivity, called WSIS+20. We met Ian, and he got me on his great podcast called Digitel Talk, talking about the recent work we've been doing with the UN to bring high-speed Internet to new places.

Huge props to our Lead Network Engineer (for now, promotion incoming...), Simran Saxena, for her amazing work spearheading Beamlink's work with the United Nations. We're honored to partner with the UN ITU to connect the next 3.5 Billion people around the globe! And while Simran says the beginning of our work with the UN is a story for another day, here's a sneak peak -- Simran has been leading the charge for years working closely with the UN ITU on redefining how international cell networks can be built and deployed across borders. Stay tuned for a full overview!
𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐟𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐫𝟐𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐈𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞! It’s been an incredible journey representing Beamlink and its mission across the United Nations ecosystem, and I’m proud to share that we’ve been featured in the official digital magazine of the 𝐔𝐍’𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐫2𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭 (𝐏2𝐂) initiative. 🔗 https://shorturl.at/oylgw I had the opportunity to contribute to our official pledge and help shape how Beamlink’s mission to connect the unconnected was presented to a global audience. From writing to speaking and sharing our story, it’s been gratifying to lead our engagement with the International Telecommunication Union and the P2C community. Another highlight was speaking at the P2C Community Webinar in April 2025 — a powerful global gathering of pioneers in telecom, all advocating for digital equity. I presented Beamlink’s work and our commitment to connect millions of people across underserved regions in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and the Pacific 🌐 over the next 5 years — delivering meaningful, affordable, and rapidly deployable mobile connectivity where it’s needed most. Our journey with P2C gained momentum after 📍 MWC Barcelona 2025, where I attended the 𝑫𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒚 4 𝑻𝒆𝒄𝒉- 𝑬𝑸𝑼𝑨𝑳𝑺: 𝑾𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑮𝒊𝒓𝒍𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒂 𝑵𝒆𝒘 𝑫𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝑬𝒓𝒂 𝒔𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏, which had Doreen Bogdan-Martin, 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲-𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐓𝐔 as one of the panelist. Her words were extremely powerful and motivating, and soon after the session, I got the chance to pitch Beamlink’s mission to her in person. She graciously listened, and that one moment opened the door to a cascade of collaborations that followed. 𝐇𝐮𝐠𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐬 to Antonio Human from the P2C team, whose energy and belief in our work helped us share Beamlink’s story — and our flagship solution, the Bentocell — at a global P2C meeting. 🙌🏽 And to the wonderful P2C Flash editorial team, thank you for the spotlight and the platform. Additionally, none of this would have been possible without Mateo Abascal’s support and collaboration. Thank you for trusting me and helping me at each stage. 💙 𝘍𝘶𝘯 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘵?
