Global industry leaders who are shaping the future of digital infrastructure
In our eleventh-issue cover story, we profile the digital infrastructure industry’s global leaders who are shaping and inspiring the industry's future while ensuring everyone has access to the digital tools, resources, and connectivity they need to thrive in a society where the Internet is critical. The push for more sustainable, equitable, and reliable next-generation digital infrastructure—and being proactive rather than reactive in developing it—is a theme found throughout the other stories in this issue, too. Our feature story presents the key takeaways from the industry experts who participated in the IEIC Global NAP 2.0 Summit. We also explore how the SubTopic Foundation fosters new fiber optic talent, how Connected Nation’s CNIXP slashes the digital divide, and how hyperscalers are facing an increased need for decentralization.
