As part of the collaboration, Amazon plans to partner with Vodafone to roll out Project Kuiper's high-speed broadband services to unserved and underserved communities around the world. The companies are also exploring additional enterprise-specific offerings to provide businesses with comprehensive global connectivity solutions, such as backup service for unexpected events and extending connectivity to remote infrastructure. In September 2023, Margherita Della Valle, Vodafone Group Chief Executive, said: "Vodafone's work with Project Kuiper will provide mobile connectivity to many of the estimated 40 percent of the global population without internet access, supporting remote communities, their schools and businesses, the emergency services, and disaster relief. These connections will be complemented further through our own work on direct-to-smartphone satellite services". Project Kuiper will start Beta services this coming winter.
