Our CEO, Carl Grivner, spoke to The Economic Times about connectivity from India to the Gulf and how FLAG is addressing challenges across the route by forging partnerships and developing alternative routes in the Gulf.
As continued disruptions can affect subsea cables passing through the Red Sea, cable operators are mitigating circumstances and focusing on additional infrastructure investment in the region to avoid blackouts, leading to increased costs and putting further strain on global networks.
Carl highlighted how FLAG is responding by focusing on strategic collaborations and prioritising key initiatives like the Gulf European Transit Route (GET), one of the first multimodal pathways that integrates subsea fibre with terrestrial infrastructure to effectively bypass the Red Sea.
As a leading investor in global subsea networks like FALCON, FLAG is committed to minimising downtime and building a more resilient, future-ready internet infrastructure for high-growth regions. With an international long-distance (ILD) licence in India and ongoing investments across India, the Middle East, Europea & Asia, FLAG is continuing to expand its reach through this critical corridor.
At FLAG, we’re focused on building the networks that keep the digital world running by connecting regions, reducing risk and helping digital economies grow.
