Buenos Aires, October 22, 2025. Orbith, a satellite internet service provider, announced that it has begun deploying a key connectivity project for the province of Salta. This project includes the installation of 218 sites to provide high-speed internet to 194 educational institutions and 24 public organizations located in remote or hard-to-reach areas.
“This is the ‘Satellite Internet Connectivity and Technological Replacement for Rural Schools’ program, whose goal is twofold: to bring high-quality internet connection to rural educational establishments for the first time and, at the same time, to update the existing infrastructure using state-of-the-art satellite technology: rural schools that previously had 1 Mbps connectivity speed will now have 200 Mbps, with 1 TB plans. The departments that will benefit from this delivery of antennas are Rivadavia, San Martín, Anta, Rosario de Lerma, Rosario de la Frontera, Chicoana, Guachipas, La Candelaria, La Poma, Orán, and Metán,” reported Pablo Mosiul, CEO of Orbith, adding: “In the first stage of the project, awarded by the Modernization Secretariat of Salta, work is already underway at 104 points in low LEO orbit, which include 94 educational institutions and 10 security agencies. This initiative by the Government of Salta is fundamental for the future of the province. Ensuring “That every student has access to quality internet, regardless of their geographic location, is an act of social justice and an engine of development.”
“The impact of this project goes beyond connectivity: by bringing high-speed internet to these rural schools, we are equipping our youth with the tools they need to compete in the 21st century, opening up a range of learning and professional development opportunities that didn’t exist before. It’s a historic technological leap that benefits the entire educational community,” explained Pablo Mosiul.
“When we talk about connectivity, it’s not just about improving internet access, but about bringing quality education to every part of the province. That’s why, in Salta, we’re working to ensure that every decision regarding education benefits all regions, guaranteeing learning opportunities wherever every Salta resident lives,” said Cristina Fiore, Minister of Education, Culture, Science, and Technology of Salta, during the presentation ceremony held on Tuesday, October 21, which was also attended by the Secretary of Modernization, Martín Güemes; the Mayor of General Güemes, Carlos Rosso; and, representing Orbith, Diego Rodi, Corporate Commercial Manager; and Nicolás Vuga, Service Manager; as well as representatives of the beneficiary schools.
Diego Rodi, Orbith’s Corporate Sales Manager, highlighted the technological capabilities that make it possible to carry out a project of this magnitude: “At Orbith, we are proud to bring cutting-edge technology to the most remote corners of Salta, allowing us to provide connectivity of up to 200 megabytes. It’s not just about connecting, but about doing so with a quality and speed that allow for the real use of educational platforms, telemedicine, and digital procedures, even in the most complex areas.”
“The connectivity of public agencies is also crucial. A connected state is a more efficient, transparent, and citizen-friendly state. Getting security agencies and other agencies in rural areas to work together will significantly improve the responsiveness and quality of the services the province provides to its residents,” said Nicolás Vuga, Service Manager at Orbith.
“We are very happy to be able to contribute to the country’s connectivity, bringing the internet to hundreds of students, teachers, and public workers who can now access new tools for learning, teaching, and development,” said Orbith’s CEO. He concluded: “With this implementation, Orbith consolidates its role as a strategic partner in Argentina’s digital transformation, using its cutting-edge satellite technology to build a more connected and inclusive future.”
