Developed in collaboration with the Iraqi Informatics & Telecommunication Public Company (ITPC), the route has become a strategic link for data traffic between the GCC and Europe.
Strategic Partnership and Route Development
The Kalaam Iraq Transit Route was established through a strategic partnership with ITPC, aiming to create an alternate route for operators to connect the GCC to Europe via Iraq.

It provides low latency, high security, and reliable performance, making it a preferred choice for regional and international operators. With multi-terabit throughput capacity, the route meets the increasing demand for high-capacity data transmission across the Middle East and into Europe.
Impact on Regional Digital Infrastructure
This initiative positions Iraq as a key transit hub in global telecommunications. By improving reliability and efficiency for cross-border data traffic, the route supports the growing need for high-capacity, low-latency connectivity between the Middle East and Europe. It also strengthens the digital backbone for businesses and governments in the region, enabling smoother data flows and supporting economic growth.
Future Prospects and Expansion
