Meta and Internet Society team up to expand internet access around the world
Meta and the Internet Society have established the Connectivity Co-Funding Initiative, which they announced at Mobile World Congress 2025.
The partners are committing a $30 million investment through 2030 that will go to funding infrastructure development in various communities, specifically those overlooked or intentionally ignored by commercial providers.
