en.Wedoany.com Reported - SkyLink, the satellite internet division of Sky, has appointed Paulo Bigal as Commercial Director to lead the expansion of satellite internet services in Latin America in partnership with Amazon LEO (Amazon Low Earth Orbit satellite constellation). This strategy covers both the residential market (B2C) and corporate clients (B2B), including small, medium, and large enterprises.

According to the announcement, the executive will be responsible for supporting the growth strategy of the new connectivity business of the Waiken ILW Group (which owns the Sky and Zaaz brands). In addition to his role at SkyLink, Bigal will also sell satellite internet services in other Latin American countries through DirecTV Link. The company stated that this move is part of its plan to expand connectivity service offerings in Latin America.

In June 2024, Vrio, the holding group of Sky and DirecTV in Latin America, signed an agreement with Amazon to provide satellite internet access in seven South American countries using a low Earth orbit satellite constellation. In February of this year, this partnership was extended to the B2B sector, covering small, medium, and large enterprises. At that time, the Latin American operator stated that the partnership has the potential to serve 15 million businesses in Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, and Uruguay. The launch of the SkyLink brand in the Brazilian market was announced by the group in April of this year.

Prior to joining the group, Bigal served as Commercial Director at Speedcast for eight years and held the position of Regional Manager at Sencinet.
