Northern EU Gateways - WP5

Improving EU's backbone connectivity and strengthening the links with third countries

Strategic importance for the NRENs

The Northern EU Gateways project has given boost to the Polar Connect initiative by allowing to investigate the shorter route options for subsea cables through the Arctic Ocean. Polar Connect is the effort led by NORDUnet to catalyse the establishment of resilient connectivity through the Arctic to Asia (Japan) and North America for the Research, Development, Innovation (RDI), and Education sectors. These submarine cable systems will bring not only resilience  to the network, but will also mitigate digital congestion, improve sustainability, and induce economic benefits to the Nordic region.
