Meta has initiated the Waterworth Project, which plans to construct an extensive 50,000-kilometer undersea cable to enhance global internet services across five continents. This project, regarded as a pivotal multibillion-dollar investment, aims to increase the reliability and speed of internet traffic, especially to support artificial intelligence developments. With landing points in key countries including India, the U.S., and Brazil, the infrastructure is expected to foster significant digital economy growth, particularly in India, aligning with the governments' strategic commitments on undersea technology cooperation, as highlighted in a recent joint statement by leaders of the U.S. and India.
"Project Waterworth will be a multibillion dollar, multiyear investment to strengthen the scale and reliability of the world's digital highways by opening three new oceanic corridors with the abundant, high-speed connectivity needed to drive AI innovation around the world."
"In India, where we've already seen significant growth and investment in digital infrastructure, Waterworth will help accelerate this progress and support the country's ambitious plans for its digital economy."
