Many locations around the world are clamoring to become the next great hub. But before we can identify successful practices to promote digital hubs, we first must decide how to measure that connectivity.

What role do submarine cables play? How about electricity and green power? And government policies ... can those even be quantified?

At Platform Global 2024, TeleGeography VP of Research Tim Stronge took to the stage to tackle these questions.

But this was no average presentation.

Hosted in Antibes—the setting of several James Bond sagas—this was a mission briefing with the following objectives:

  1. Identify targets
  2. Acquire Q-Branch tech
  3. Pinpoint communications nodes
  4. Analyze government threats
  5. Find sources of power

Confidential rankings were spilled. Secret data sets came to light. And, of course, a series of cool maps was unveiled.
