AFIBER Newsletter – Summer 2026

Summer is a good time to briefly look back. The past six months have once again shown how rapidly our industry is evolving and how important reliable, scalable, and future-proof connectivity is for organizations. Together with our customers and partners, we have once again made significant progress in recent months.

We are proud to have extended our partnership with NTT, a customer of AFIBER since day one. We also supported Asimo in expanding its network, and we connected Colocenter Zoetermeer to the AFIBER network. In addition, we also increased our network capacity within the data centers of Digital Realty, NorthC, and Iron Mountain. These expansions strengthen connectivity options across the region.

Alongside these projects, meetings with customers, partners, and industry peers in person remains exceptionally valuable. At events such as the KickStart Europe Conference, CloudFest, and Zorg & ICT, we shared knowledge, discussed new developments, and gained valuable insights. These conversations always bring a new boost of energy and reaffirms just how important collaboration is within our industry.

On behalf of the entire AFIBER team, I would like to thank everyone for their trust and the wonderful collaboration. We look forward to a great second half of the year. For now, I wish you a wonderful and relaxing summer!

Managing Director, AFIBER
