 Welcome to JSA TV, the newsroom for tech and telecom professionals. I'm Jamie Scott of JSA here at ITW 2019 in Atlanta. Joining me my good friend Mike Cunningham, he is the CEO of Crosslake Fiber, Mike. Welcome back to JSA TV. Thanks a lot, Jamie. Always enjoyed doing this. Pleasure to be here. It's a pleasure to have you. It's an honor to have you and I can't believe we even get some of your time. You are one busy man for sure. First off, big announcement today, partnering with Sienna. Can you tell us a little bit about that announcement? Yeah, I mean we've definitely been looking for quite some time at selecting a technology provider to really facilitate our capacity services. And so we're announcing this week here at ITW that we're partnering with Sienna to be our platform for all of our capacity services. And it definitely makes sense to announce the news here at ITW. There's certainly a lot of folks here that would be interested in this news. Tell us a little bit about your system coming into service. Yeah, I mean it's been a long time coming but we're very excited now to be having the system come into service imminently here in just a few weeks time. So it's great to have a good announcement at ITW no less to announce this partnership with Sienna. And it's very timely obviously for us going and putting our entire network for the initial project into service. And for our viewers who may not already know, tell us a little bit about your network, the landing points and why this would be beneficial especially for financial markets. Sure, so the Crosslake Fiber system, the Lake Ontario system goes from Toronto down to Buffalo and to the New York, New Jersey area. It's the first new dark fiber high count route that goes between Toronto and the US. It provides a physically diverse route on a lower latency basis. So those traits are very beneficial to certain segments of the customers specifically the financial market. And that's definitely one of the segments of the market that we've been targeting. And you certainly have a velocity product that tailors that ultra low latency marketplace, is that accurate? Yeah, so the velocity product is our low latency service which essentially creates a number of different tiers for low latency that will provide depending upon the requirement of the customer a different type of service based upon latency and diversity for the financial market. And now as we continue to grow and scale here at Crosslake Fiber and pivot from developer into operator, tell us a little bit about that transition and what we can expect. Yeah, I mean it's always an exciting time for the company when you go through that transition from development stage to operating phase. And so we've really grown our team recently to round out the management team to get ready for that next stage of the company. So we've brought on a new CFO, Joseph Sierra Varela, who's a very experienced guy with a telecom background and it's great having him on board. And Jeff Edward who has come on as vice president of operations, who's a very experienced in the telecom space. And we're very excited to have them on board and to make these announcements. Joe and Jeff bring great resumes to your already fabulous team so I can see how that would be very exciting news there. So much happening. How do you even have time, Mike, for other projects? It's tough but we find a way. I mean the concept of Crosslake Fiber is to provide or to be a platform with which to develop new long haul routes that have a subsea component. So our next project that is in active development is the Cross Channel project from London Slough to Paris. And we've completed the desktop study. We're in the middle of the procurement process for the marine survey. We're on the second round of adjudication of the bids for that, securing the terrestrial routes in both the UK and France. So that project is advancing very quickly and we're very excited about it as well. So I love that you're connecting North America and you're also crossing the channel and connecting the UK with France. So exciting news on that front for folks who want to learn more. Where can they go? You can visit us on our website, crosslakefiber.ca, F-I-B-R-E, and find out about us there or you can give us a call, email, whatever works. And we'll have that URL right there. You can see that British wave spelling Fiber, or Canadian, you should say. Alright guys, definitely check them out. Mike, thank you all as always for joining us here at ITW and on JSA TV. And thank you viewers for tuning in to JSA TV. Happy networking.
