The Subsea Keynote: Malbec, Firmina, Humboldt & the New LATAM Wave

17 Mar 2026
Capacity LATAM 2026

Subsea cables are the hidden backbone of the digital economy, and LATAM is at the centre of a new wave of systems. From Malbec, to Firmina and Humboldt, SAC-2,  these routes expand capacity, reduce latency, and connect renewable-rich regions to global data flows. This keynote unpacks the strategic role of subsea in AI, cloud, and edge expansion. 

  • How new routes - Firmina, Humboldt, SAC-2 - strengthen connectivity with the U.S., Asia-Pacific, and Europe. 

  • Strategic importance of landings in Chile, Uruguay, and Brazil for latency-sensitive workloads. 

  • Aligning subsea projects with renewable corridors and national digital agendas.
