One of SEACOM’s key Corporate Social Responsibility commitments is to provide accessible and affordable international bandwidth to East African higher education institutions, and since launching on 23 July 2009, we have delivered on this by supplying various East African National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) with discounted international bandwidth connectivity.

The SEACOM cable was successfully repaired on 23 July 2010 and all customers have been reinstated to pre-outage configurations. SEACOM would like to take this opportunity to thank all its customers, partners and peers for their collaboration and support during the outage.
