Lynk is a Privately Owned company headquartered in the United States. Founded in 2017, the company employs approximately 50 individuals. Functioning in connectivity and distribution services, Lynk specializes in developing a satellite-to-mobile-phone satellite constellation. This constellation aims to provide a "cell tower in space" capability designed for global mobile phone service coverage, specifically targeting underserved rural areas without existing cellular coverage.
On August 20, 2026, SMART Communications Inc. expanded its direct-to-device (D2D) satellite service testing with Lynk Global to Batangas, aiming to strengthen communications resiliency and support national disaster response capabilities. This development followed Hogan Lovells Cadwalader advising Omnispace on its merger with Lynk earlier the same day, a transaction that launched Elveo Mobile. Previously, also on August 20, Lynk and Omnispace completed their merger, introducing the newly combined company, Elveo Mobile. Elveo Mobile aims to deliver reliable next-generation connectivity directly from satellites to mobile phones, devices, and machines globally, leveraging the two pioneers' combined 20 years of direct-to-device communications heritage, globally coordinated high-priority spectrum rights, and patented multi-band satellite technology.
