Vodafone Cook Islands (Part 2): Closing The Digital Divide

Over the last decade, Vodafone and SES have taken the Cook Islands from high-frequency radio to high-speed broadband using the SES MEO satellite network. The next phase in the partnership deploys the advanced satellite constellation O3b mPOWER to provide fast and reliable 4G+ connectivity to the remotest part of the archipelago.

In the second of five podcast episodes, we learnt about the impact O3b mPOWER’s rollout will have, and how engineers in the Cook Islands are preparing for its arrival on Atiu.

Featuring:

Anthony Stribling, customer service manager (APAC region), SES

Robert McFadzien, CTO, Vodafone Cook Islands

The Podcast Coach: Helping ordinary people share extraordinary stories.

Aged 10, I dreamt of having my own production company called A Small Furry Bear. I presented radio shows on a ghetto blaster in my bedroom with my little brother. Now, some 20+ years later, as a podcast coach and presenter - that day dream has become an everyday reality.

Question is, how can we make your dreams of presenting a podcast come true as well?
