Starlink's attempt to establish operations in Namibia has faced a setback as the Communications Regulatory Authority of Namibia (CRAN) rejected the company's appeal against a previous licensing denial. This decision leaves Starlink without a means to enter a key telecom market in southern Africa.

The Business Registration and Licensing Agency (BRELA) has highlighted its significant achievements for the 2025/2026 period, emphasizing its role in promoting national economic growth through sustainable strategies aimed at formalizing economic activities. BRELA's CEO, Godfrey Nyaisa, made these remarks during a staff workshop in Morogoro, where he detailed the agency's successes in ensuring that all Tanzanians have access to registration and licensing services.
