Grid Telecom, a telecommunications subsidiary of the Independent Power Transmission Operator (IPTO), is contributing to the enhancement of broadband connectivity in remote rural areas of Sarantaporo, Elassona, in Thessaly. This initiative leverages the company’s optical infrastructure in collaboration with the Sarantaporo.gr Non Profit Organization.
As part of its first sponsorship initiative, Grid Telecom is providing free capacity services to connect the Sarantaporo.gr Wireless Community Network with the National Infrastructures for Research and Technology Network (GRNET SA), one of the country’s largest public technology organizations.
By connecting the Sarantaporo.gr Wireless Community Network to the nearest Data Center where GRNET has a presence through Grid Telecom’s infrastructure, the quality and speed of telecommunications services in the area will be significantly improved. This development will reduce the digital divide and facilitate the implementation of innovative solutions.
