Mark and his team announced a new initiative to connect to the Internet in remote places called "OpenCellular" It is a open source platform serves as a "wireless access platform." The idea of this project is that this platform reduces the cost of production of cellular networks in remote and distant places which are difficult to create such networks.
Marc commented on this initiative by saying that "more than four billion people lack access to connect to the Internet, one of the biggest challenges is how to get to those areas where the existing infrastructure is weak and not able to cover these remote places."
Zuckerberg said that this new platform will be open source and available to anyone, whether working in the field of communications or business. The platform, according to the CEO of Facebook, is the size of a shoebox and can support up to 1,500 people within a 10-kilometer diameter circle.
