Headline

Capacity Eurasia 2025 explored the role of edge infrastructure, fibre upgrades, and IPv4 solutions in strengthening digital routes.

Context

Capacity Eurasia 2025 concluded after two days of focused dialogue and cross-border engagement in Istanbul. The event brought together telecom operators, infrastructure providers, regulators, and technology leaders to explore the evolving digital landscape across the Eurasian corridor. Set at the intersection of three continents, Istanbul drew attention as a rising hub for global interconnection, data transit, and IP routing. The agenda focused on connectivity resilience, fibre expansion, regulatory harmonisation, and strategies to address IPv4 scarcity in underserved markets.

They stressed the need to upgrade both land-based and subsea fibre networks, especially through the Black Sea and Caspian regions. These upgrades are seen as essential for improving route diversity and reducing delays in data transmission. The expansion of edge data centres in smaller cities was also a major talking point. These facilities help move cloud services closer to end users, reduce latency, and open up new opportunities in less developed markets.

Key Points

  • Capacity Eurasia 2025 showcased Eurasia’s growing role in global transit and the importance of edge infrastructure in expanding regional access.
  • IPv4 scarcity, regulatory fragmentation, and demand for structured leasing emerged as urgent issues for service providers and infrastructure players.

Actions

Pending intelligence enrichment.
