Everest Link

Everest Link is an internet service provider founded in 2014 that provides high-speed internet and Wi-Fi in the remote Everest Region. It is the only internet provider at the Everest Base Camp, located at a height of 5,380m (17,600 feet), making it the world's highest internet service. Before Everest Link was set up at the Base Camp, climbers solely relied on satellite phones for communication.

The service has also helped the inhabitants of some of the remotest villages in the region to connect with the outside world. Everest Link's projects such as "Hello Doctor" provide free online medical consultations to anyone in the Khumbu region, where medical facilities are scarce. Currently, the network, comprising 36 towers, exclusively relies on solar power and covers the region between Lukla and the Base Camp.
