Our CEO, Carl Grivner, spoke to tahawultech.com about how FLAG is navigating a rapidly changing connectivity landscape. As competition intensifies, FLAG is unlocking opportunities in high-growth regions such as the Middle East through agility and strategic partnerships.
Carriers like FLAG play a critical role by investing in new corridors and building resilient, redundant infrastructure to meet surging demand. Leveraging our expertise in navigating complex connectivity challenges, we focus on high-growth markets to expand digital access where it’s needed most.
Carl highlighted that regulatory and operational hurdles remain complex, from licensing restrictions to data sovereignty laws. By engaging with regulators as long-term partners, FLAG ensures compliance while expanding carrier-neutral solutions that keep data flowing even during disruption.
At the heart of this approach is FLAG’s belief that universal connectivity is not only a technological goal but also a human right and a driver of global trade and prosperity.
With a strong presence in the Middle East through cable systems like FALCON, HAWK and FEA, and new partnerships driving initiatives such as the Gulf European Transit (GET) Route and the Saudi Transit Route, FLAG is expanding routing options beyond the Red Sea and strengthening global resilience.
By combining strategic partnerships, resilient infrastructure and innovative routes, FLAG is redefining what global connectivity can achieve.
