Resilient, global communications for restricted communities

For billions of people without internet access and for communities trapped by politically motivated network shutdowns and ‘splinterization’, eQsat is a digital lifeline – delivering critical content across digital and geographic barriers.

eQSat is dedicated to enabling unfettered digital content delivery, using advanced technologies and strategies to overcome internet shutdowns and digital isolation in multiple regions worldwide. 

Emergency datacasting for diverse content and payloads

eQSat’s resilient, reliable connectivity ensures that vital information and online resources remain accessible, even when the global internet is blocked or restricted. 

Leveraging decentralized networks, satellite and other communications technologies, we work with diverse content providers and sources to enhance digital literacy and support the sharing of uncensored information in challenging environments. 

Approach 

eQSat brings together a team of human rights activists and technologists to provide resilient, uncensored access to information. Our diverse expertise in satellite communications, decentralized networks and cybersecurity enable us to build low cost, accessible solutions to bypass restrictive regimes.
