The one-day "Iran Corridor" event promotes regional cooperation in advancing the Digital Economy by
enhancing interconnected digital infrastructures. Iran plays a strategic role as a vital corridor,
linking regions through terrestrial and submarine fiber optic networks, fostering diversity in
digital facilities. This position enables the integration of regional digital platforms and
reliable, high-speed data communication.
The event explores opportunities for co-investment in interregional cable systems, leveraging Iran's
role at the crossroads of Trans-Eurasian corridors: the Middle East to Central Asia and Caucasus,
the Indian Ocean to the Caspian Sea, and the Persian Gulf to the Black Sea. It emphasizes
geo-distributed data centers, Digital Free Zones, and Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) while
highlighting advanced technologies like Artificiial Intelligence, cloud computing, and secure
communication systems to advance digital connectivity.
Iran Corridor is an exclusive gathering designed to showcase the rapidly growing fields of technology, innovation, and connectivity via Iran. As one of the most dynamic regions for technological growth, Iran is poised to be at the center of transformation in the Middle East, and this event brings together key industry leaders, innovators, and stakeholders from across the globe.
