Closing the digital divide and opening up a world of opportunity for those who are not benefiting from the high-speed revolution.
Technology, with its relentless pace has reshaped how we experience time. The immediacy of communication and the constant influx of information have compressed our sense of time, creating a feeling of simultaneity and urgency. AI and quantum computing promises a burst of innovation, an inevitable wave of powerful, fast-proliferating new technologies. These breakthroughs are solving huge challenges and creating vast wealth and opportunity for humanity.
Optical fiber is the gateway to speed and access, but it’s only accessible to half the globe.
The quiescence of data impacts every country on earth, because network giants have ceased their commitment to access for all.
We’ve exhausted the outdated methods for deploying fiber.
We need to re-design. re-work and re-deploy for a fully connected world.
The global coverage for full fiber broadband is still limited to approx. 1 in 6 of the world population.
Despite the fact that there are four billion kilometers of fiber deployed globally.
The growth rate for deployment is limited to single digits per year, but technology is evolving at a much faster rate.
The infrastructure is not keeping pace, and by 2030 we will require a minimum of four times more fiber to be deployed just to support the roll out of 5G and then 6G.
We are stuck with technology, when what we really want is just stuff that works.

Fiber broadband for all is now a priority for governments, and funding is beginning to become available. This is a very good thing, but at the rate in which fiber is currently being deployed there is a need to think beyond the traditional methods.
This is where Aqualinq will play a vital role because our solution can be deployed at pace with limited permissions and disruption. We can deploy in places that others cannot and we are the only company on earth that can deliver this solution.
We are perfectly positioned to support initiatives such as BEAD (Broadband Equity Access and Deployment) funding and continue to be a trusted partner to ISP’s and government in fulfilling the pledge to make internet access universal by 2030.
The web is more a social creation than a technical one. I designed it for a social effect to help people work together and not as a technical tool. The ultimate goal of the Web is to support and improve our web like existence in the world.
