Digital infrastructure only creates value when assets are connected. This session explores the critical role of fiber and interconnection in tying together towers, edge sites, cloud platforms and enterprise networks. Speakers will discuss how interconnection hubs, long-haul and metro fiber, and neutral-host facilities create network effects that attract customers and drive asset value. The panel will also examine how AI traffic is increasing demand for high-capacity fiber routes and low-latency interconnection, and what that means for investors and operators. Attendees will learn why fiber and interconnection sit at the center of ecosystem strategy and asset valuation.
