 Welcome, guys, to JSA TV and JSA Podcast, the newsroom for telecom and data center professionals. I'm Jamie Scott-Okutaya here live broadcasting from ITW 2022, and what a year, guys. It's the 15th anniversary for ITW, and we're all back together again after a two-year hiatus, and it is so great to see friends and colleagues here, again, face-to-face. I will tell you that. So here joining me today with breaking news, I'm so excited to introduce you to Greg Elliott, the vice president of business development, and Todd Cushing, the president of 1623 Farnum. Gentlemen, welcome to JSA TV. Thanks for having us. Appreciate the opportunity. Thank you, Jamie. We are honored. We are honored. And so let's just start by table-setting, if you will. Todd, for those who are maybe new to JSA TV, might just not know, can you give us a little information on who 1623 Farnum is? So 1623 Farnum is an interconnection facility in the middle of the United States. It's also freshly remodeled with new power and new cooling, so it's a nine-story building about 76,000 feet. The Omaha Metro is under siege by a hyperscale. So we've got lots of activity, lots of new carriers, a lot of interconnection happening. More and more eyeballs, more interconnection for every client cabinets in the facility. So it's just a lot of excitement, a lot of growth. We're really happy about it. And it's such an exciting time, besides all of this growth and this interest, so much capacity needs right now. Here at ITW, you can hear the buzz. Our industry is excited. So what does an organization like 1623 Farnum, Greg, bring to an international telecom conference? Yeah, thanks, Jamie. So a lot of things, I mean, we're just happy to be here, having these face-to-face conversations, schedule meetings, but also the unintended collisions that we're having, just running into people, connecting the dots. And so for a company that's in the middle of the US, it's important for us to get out and have those conversations. So let's say an international carrier or content providers, you know, they're East Coast, West Coast, we're a great spot right in the middle to interconnect. So those kinds of things are, we're just having a blast being here live. And yeah, you're so strategically positioned and a great place to meet, meet in the middle, if you will. Yes, we'll talk about meet in the middle. Sure, so this fall we'll have a meet in the middle event and it's been on a inaugural or an annual deal. It's been going on for a while, so we'll have a scavenger hunt and lots of golf and a lot of social time the night before and the day of. So we'll be hosting it at the site and the date for that event's gonna be on. September 22nd. So we're looking forward to having people come to Omaha and meet in the middle. And we created the meet in the middle event, mainly because, you know, once our customers came in and set their router switches in the racks we never saw them again, we didn't like that. So this meet in the middle, customers, potential customers is just a great networking event that we put on. We're also hosting the first ever Midwest peering exchange. So that'll be in July and Des Moines. So a lot of the Midwest US peering exchanges are getting together and just gonna get together on peering. Oh, I love it. I love it. And again, it's like we're coming back to our in-person connectivity, right? What you guys are specializing in but bringing it face to face back guys, it feels great, it really does. Tell me, what do you see on the horizon for 2022 and beyond? Todd, I'll start with you. We are seeing a lot of interconnection continuing. So there's gonna be more builds in Omaha. We've had an announcement of another Google facility. We're super excited about that which is driving more connectivity to our facility, more connectivity to Omaha Metro, more, again, eyeballs more peering to the Metro area. So really, I think it's been a playoff of other partners for those hyperscalers to come to the area. They've looked at maybe the Omaha area for a long time and it's really gonna drive more of that partnership to happen. Yeah. And so how we've been successful is to continually grow that ecosystem. So in the last year, we've added packet fabric, subspace, mega ports, been there for a while. And then we're also gonna operate the Omaha X2. So we're growing that. So that's exciting. And just the simple locations creating a lot of great opportunities. So reach out if you ever wanna, if you're through the area or you wanna come by, just let us know. And to that point, where can our viewers go if they wanna learn more? I'm sure. So www.1623farnum.com, JSA helped us with the site. It's amazing.
