Year: 2023

In June 2022, The Henrico Economic Development Authority (EDA) realized an opportunity to partner with DE-CIX, or Deutsche Commercial Internet Exchange , the world’s largest Internet Exchange operator, and QTS mega data center to bring together the international community to talk about the digital infrastructure landscape and how we might harness the energy and scalability of the incredible power and capacity to power businesses worldwide with our striking, cutting-edge, world-class technology infrastructure that Henrico County has spent the last 30 years developing in what has become White Oak Technology Park. The IEIC Global NAP Summit 2.0 was born. Henrico EDA wanted to expand on the first Summit and saw an opportunity to include world leaders in the digital infrastructure and connectivity ecosystem. The main objective was to gather luminaries from six continents in Henrico and to speak to the massive impact that Henrico’s digital infrastructure is poised to make on a global scale both immediately and in the future.
