On June 30, Steve Lentz, Director of Network System Science and Engineering, Ocean Specialists Inc. (OSI) gave a presentation at a Total Telecom webinar entitled, Building the Submarine Networks of the Future with SMART Cables.

The legal implications of submarine cables have been reviewed by the ITU/WMO/UNESCO Joint Task Force, which published a study in 2012. The topic has been further examined by the International Submarine Cable Protection Committee (ICPC), whose legal counsel, Kent Bressie, provided an excellent summary.
According to recent market commentary by SubCableWorld.com, activity on new cable systems has continued as planned throughout the COVID-19 crisis. The pandemic has unquestionably highlighted how critical submarine cables are to Internet connectivity and this is now understood by governments, businesses, and, increasingly, by the news media and general public.
