Welcome to the 55th issue of SubTel Forum, marking the beginning of our 10th year in circulation. This 'Global Outlook' edition sets the stage for 2011 with a renewed focus on the evolving submarine telecommunications industry.

This issue highlights the industry's direction with articles on transatlantic subsea growth, the importance of neutral, dark fiber network infrastructure, and the connectivity advancements in the Middle East. We are excited to introduce digital enhancements to our magazine and RSS feed, catering to the needs of executives on the go.
