MTN and Bond Support Services Partner to Elevate Yacht Technology and Connectivity

Written By Tess Keegan

Launching at the 2025 Monaco Yacht Show, this alliance sets a new standard for onboard service and performance.

MTN and Bond Support Services, two trusted leaders in maritime technology, have joined forces to deliver a new standard of onboard connectivity and support for superyachts. The partnership offers tailored service models, flexible plan structures, and support aligned to each vessel’s operational profile. It is designed to meet the rising expectations of owners, captains, and shipyards seeking more reliable and integrated solutions.

Why This Matters

According to Grand View Research, the global yacht market was valued at $9.39 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $13.29 billion by 2030. As the market grows, so does the demand for smarter, more future-ready infrastructure. Yet many vessels still rely on outdated systems, inconsistent networks, and fragmented support models. Our partnership with Bond is designed to change that by bringing greater simplicity, speed, and resilience to an industry that requires a network built for the 21st century.

What the Partnership Delivers

This alliance combines two areas of deep expertise:

  • MTN's Contribution: MTN is a preferred Starlink and OneWeb reseller, offering tailored, usage-based plans with pooled options for fleets. Its enterprise-grade platform supports advanced services including link aggregation, private tunneling, traffic termination, and static IPs, with 24/7 live support. MTN’s specialized maritime hardware, including the new Performance Mounting System, ensures consistent gigabit-speed satellite connectivity.

  • Bond Support Services’ Contribution: Bond provides new build consultancy as well as a full suite of onboard technology solutions for both refit and support services, such as IT infrastructure, AV systems, cybersecurity, communication systems, security systems, air purification, IT, AV & Cyber Risk Awareness Training, and more recently, energy consumption monitoring. All of this is supported by their globally recognized 24/7 concierge model.

Together, we deliver 360-degree comprehensive support. This alliance ensures seamless integration between onboard systems and global connectivity solutions, high operational uptime with end-to-end multi-network management, and future-ready infrastructure capable of supporting emerging technologies and security standards. Clients can customize their plans and choose the level of support they need by working with one provider or both.
