Gabon Develops Spatial Strategy to Enhance Sovereignty

The Gabonese capital, Libreville, has become a hub for discussing the country’s future in telecommunications. Facing geographical and technological challenges, the government aims to utilize satellite technology as a pillar of its economic development.

In the presence of Ageos and Aninf directors, these discussions aim to lay the groundwork for a sustainable national strategy.

To address the changing global economy, the government plans to use satellite connectivity to strengthen its sovereignty, security, and resilience.

Given Gabon’s dense tropical forest covering 88% of its territory, deploying fiber-optic networks nationwide is a logistical challenge. To tackle this issue, the government prefers a hybrid model combining terrestrial and spatial solutions.
