Starry Proud To Be Named To Fortune’s Change the World List

Today, Starry is named on the eight edition of Fortune’s Change the World List!

“It's an incredible honor to be named to Fortune’s Change the World list,” said Chet Kanojia, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Starry. “Broadband access is essential, which is why Starry set out to develop technology that would lower the cost of deploying broadband networks and reimagine how consumers connect to the internet. By making high-quality, home internet access more available and more affordable, we’re reinvigorating - through technology innovation and competition - a broadband marketplace that has been largely dominated by near-monopoly incumbent providers. It has not been easy, but making world changing impacts rarely is. We’re honored to be recognized by Fortune for our efforts to advance digital equity and connectivity across the US.”
