FEATURE
Integrating Helium’ s decentralized network with Mambo’ s infrastructure allows for a rapid and cost-effective entry into the Brazilian market.
“ Our collaboration with Mambo represents a significant milestone in expanding the Helium Network internationally,” said Mario Di Dio, GM of Network at Helium.“ Together, we’ re tackling the telco market in Brazil and pioneering a new model where people-powered networks deliver affordable, reliable coverage at scale. Mambo’ s deep carrier experience and national footprint make them the perfect partner to accelerate this shift, while setting the stage for future carrier collaborations internationally.”
This joint venture reveals a clear path forward for countries seeking scalable and flexible connectivity solutions. People-powered networks reduce barriers to deployment, create economic participation opportunities and fill coverage gaps that traditional telecom operators often overlook or deem too costly to address.
Mambo’ s 40,000 access points will serve as a foundation for the Helium Network, enabling local carriers to adopt this peoplepowered model.
The rollout of Helium in Brazil will also demonstrate how carrier offload can transform service quality. By securely shifting subscriber data traffic onto Helium-powered Hotspots, carriers can improve performance, reduce strain on cellular networks and avoid expensive new infrastructure projects.
