Fiji, an archipelago in the South Pacific, consists of more than 300 islands with a population of around 900,000. The geography and population distribution pose significant challenges for technology and telecommunications deployment, with many inhabitants living in remote and rural areas. Fiji's main islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, host most of the population and have better connectivity. Fiji has made substantial advancements in telecommunications infrastructure, establishing a 4G network in urban areas and some rural locations. However, the sector is still developing, with intermittent connectivity issues and gaps in rural and remote internet coverage. In the renewables sector, Fiji has multiple hydroelectric and solar power projects and aims to achieve 100% renewable energy by 2030. The technology sector, though growing, is still in a nascent stage, with a focus on developing digital services and e-commerce.
