Guyana’s telecom sector has undergone considerable changes since the October 2020 when the 2016 Telecommunications Act was brought into force by the newly elected government of the People’s Party Progressive (PPP). Since then, Green Gibraltar (trading as GG Cell) has been licenced to provide 5G services in the populated coastal regions of the country, while the rebranded ENet has also provided VOLTE-based 5G services. The principal telco GTT was itself rebranded as ONE Communications in September 2024. The company has greatly expanded the reach of its fibre network, and aims to cover 75% of all premises by the end of 2025. For its part, Digicel has completed its Deep Blue One submarine cable connecting Guyana to French Guiana, Suriname, and Trinidad & Tobago.
The liberalisation of the market has also seen the government review the licence application from Starlink to provide satellite broadband services. This will ensure that broadband is available across the remote areas in the south of the country, as also offshore to cover fishing fleets and the oil and gas installations, which have become a crucial element of Guyana’s economic prosperity in recent years.
