#15: The Glass on the Seabed

In today’s world, the need to stay connected in multi-dimensional ways have become so intertwined with our daily lives, few will stop to wonder HOW we are connected… whether it’s an online search; booking travel or watching a movie; making a financial transaction; playing an interactive game; conducting a video conference, or simply engaging in a chat… we expect the Internet to “just work!” Not that simple… The fiber optic subsea cable… made of thin strands of coated glass fibers, each measuring about eight microns (thinner than a strand of a human hair)…has literally changed the world!

#13: Scaling Digital Infrastructure

Over the past year, network infrastructure and data center service providers have been on fast-forward, delivering on new demands for global businesses requiring rapid enhancement of everything digital. While the COVID pandemic created a tumultuous year across many industries, the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector saw explosive growth, an upward trajectory underpinned by new and more complex mandates, across the digital infrastructure supply chain. Yet amid growth, the ICT valuation game today remains debatable amongst players and investors in the sector. For example, fiber is arguably the most technical and most difficult to deliver… why are these companies valued at the low end of the sector? Meanwhile, why are data centers trading as high as 20X EBITDA? In this episode of Digging Into the Future, we unveil viewpoints from experts in network infrastructure and data center development/investment as they continue to build and navigate the foundation of our virtual world into the future… Joining us in this episode are Jonathan Atkin, Managing Director RBC Capital; Bill Stein, CEO, Digital Realty; Rick Calder, Former CEO, GTT; and David Couglan, CEO, SubCom #network #digital #technology #subsea #datacenter #valuation #ict #ebitda #digitalrealty #gtt #subcom #rbc
