In this special Digitel Talk episode recorded at the AI for Good Global Summit, host Ian Ginn speaks with Arpad Kovesdy, CTO and co-founder of Beamlink—a company on a mission to make mobile connectivity radically more accessible.

Beamlink’s flagship innovation, the Bentocell, is a portable, low-power 4G/5G cell tower that can be deployed in minutes using solar energy and AI-driven setup. Arpad shares how natural disasters like Hurricane Maria inspired the company, and how their technology is already connecting communities in Micronesia, New Zealand, and the US.
