If there’s one trailblazer in the business world, it’s Elon Musk. He changed the paradigm of the automotive industry with his electric vehicles, revolutionized space travel with his reusable rockets, and dreams of sending a human mission to Mars. Another of his ventures is to bring satellite internet to every corner of the planet through Starlink, a subsidiary of his space company SpaceX. By August, Starlink will be ready to do so. In Chile, it is running a pilot program to bring its services to schools located in two remote areas of the country: Caleta Sierra, in Coquimbo, and Sotomó, in Los Lagos. Musk’s venture is massive. He has already launched 1,500 satellites. The operation will require investments of between US$5,000 million and US$10,000 million until it generates positive cash flow, Musk said at the Mobile World Congress last month. And the investments needed to keep Starlink competitive amount to between US$20,000 million and US$30,000 million in the long term. What is Starlink’s main goal? “Not to go bankrupt,” Musk said half-jokingly during the conference.
