The name ‘Mangata’ is a Swedish word, referring to the path of light that the moon draws on water. The moon is a powerful, universal symbol and its light represents opportunity for all. Our mission is to build a bridge between connectivity and access, weaving in endless possibilities for businesses and communities to share, learn from each other, and prosper.

Recognized as one of the “Top 5 Telecom Startups to Watch in 2022”, Mangata Networks has a presence in 9 countries (and counting). We are a satellite-enabled network and edge cloud computing services company… and a bit more. We work to enable human exchange on a global level by creating accessible connectivity infrastructure services. Our host of services can adapt to changing needs, securely and in real-time.

Using a proprietary network of satellites, edge micro datacenters, and terrestrial systems, Mangata is connecting people, machines, and devices across the world. We are bringing together a team of remarkable professionals who all resolutely want to pave this path together.
