High-Tech Infrastructure

Nassau County’s major asset comes from 1025Connect, a premier carrier-neutral interconnection facility, which has direct access to the subsea cable systems and global internet exchange, and the optional ability to bypass Manhattan for greater network diversity. 1025Connect, located in central Nassau County in the Village of Westbury, is collaborating with the IDA on its current expansion plans, as both look to better understand the best economic and business development opportunities in the County. Among the top sectors taking advantage of virtually limitless bandwidth, are the information and communications technology sector (ICT), FinTech, HealthTech and the entrepreneur community.
