“We are delighted to welcome this new Google project and take pride in the fact that Panama is considered a strategic location for this subsea infrastructure. The announcement of the new subsea cables marks a transformative milestone and aligns with Panama’s Digital Hub Initiative and the digital infrastructure pillar of the National Digital Strategy. We recognize that building a more prosperous future requires this kind of transformative infrastructure. It fosters opportunities for both our country and the region, propelling us into a new era of secure and competitive global integration.

“We are pleased to welcome Canoa as the first subsea cable system to connect Bermuda directly to the Dominican Republic. It follows the Nuvem and Sol landings, and the expansion of the Bermuda Digital Exchange Port announced in June 2026. The name carries a maritime heritage that moved people and goods across these waters long before any cable did. This connection creates new digital pathways and partnerships between Bermuda and the Caribbean Community, while strengthening resilience for Bermudian households and businesses. We are encouraged that global infrastructure leaders such as Google continue to choose Bermuda. This investment reflects growing confidence in our island as a trusted digital gateway and strategic landing point in the Atlantic.” – The Hon. Alexa N.H. Lightbourne, JP, MP, Minister of Home Affairs, Government of Bermuda
“The new Alisios submarine cable, which will connect Chile, Panama, and the Dominican Republic, will be a strategic milestone, as it will strengthen our country’s position as a digital leader in Latin America. Beyond this technological achievement, this infrastructure will translate into direct benefits for our citizens. Providing faster, more resilient, and more secure connectivity would undoubtedly boost local businesses, foster economic growth, and bring the opportunities of the global digital economy directly into the homes of millions of Chileans.” – Louis de Grange, Minister of Transportation and Telecommunications and Minister of Public Works, Government of Chile
With these new investments, Google continues to pave the way for a more connected and open global cloud network centered on increasing reach, reliability, and resilience for all. New systems can further facilitate future connectivity through strategically placed branching units, mirroring the approach of our Pacific Connect initiative to ensure the network and our partners can grow alongside the needs and opportunities of the region.
