Cloud Carib, the Caribbean’s leading provider of sovereign cloud, cybersecurity and managed IT services, returns to the CANTO Annual Conference and Trade Exhibition with concrete results to match the ambitions set at last year’s event.
At CANTO 2025, Cloud Carib joined Blue NAP Americas and Gaia-X in Nassau to announce a shared vision for a federated, sovereign Caribbean digital ecosystem. Twelve months later, that vision is taking shape through new infrastructure, investment and expanded collaboration with Blue NAP Americas, Brava Solutions and the Caribbean Data Centre Association (CDA).
“At the last conference, we spoke about what would be possible if Caribbean technology providers worked together around a shared vision for sovereignty, resilience and regional control,” said Victor Kovacs, Chief Operating Officer at Cloud Carib. “We return this year with evidence that this vision is moving forward. Together with our partners, we are building the infrastructure, operational capabilities and governance needed to give Caribbean organizations greater control over their digital future.”
Cloud Carib and Blue NAP Americas have since advanced a sovereign cloud foundation designed for the Caribbean’s legal, regulatory, environmental and operational realities. The solution combines Blue NAP Americas’ infrastructure and local Network Operations Centre with Cloud Carib’s cloud, disaster recovery and cybersecurity services, monitored around the clock by its Command and Control Centers in The Bahamas and Greece.
Cloud Carib has also deepened its partnership with Brava Solutions, combining Brava’s subsea, terrestrial and mobile network capabilities with Cloud Carib’s cloud and managed-services platform.
In Bermuda, the companies are working together to manage, modernize and enhance Brava’s existing data-centre environment. The partnership will deliver secure, scalable and locally resident services for businesses, governments and regulated institutions while strengthening Bermuda’s ability to support emerging technologies, including sovereign AI.
The model extends across Brava’s footprint in Guyana and the Cayman Islands, connecting local infrastructure and market expertise with enterprise-grade cloud operations. This allows organizations to modernize while keeping critical data and services within the jurisdictions they serve.
“Sovereignty cannot be delivered by one organisation acting alone,” Kovacs added. “It requires infrastructure owners, network providers, cloud operators, policymakers and industry associations to collaborate. Our work with Brava, Blue NAP Americas and the CDA demonstrates what is possible when Caribbean capabilities are connected around a common purpose.”
Over the past year, Cloud Carib invested more than US$7 million in 2025 across infrastructure, research and development, high-skill talent and regional partnerships. New sovereign data-centre pods in Bermuda, Curaçao and Guyana extend a distributed architecture already spanning The Bahamas, Jamaica, Barbados, Panama, Ecuador and Canada.
This investment aligns directly with the CANTO 2026 theme, “Elevate the Caribbean: From Connectivity to Global Competitiveness.” For Cloud Carib and its partners, the goal is clear: a Caribbean that builds, governs and benefits from its own digital infrastructure while remaining connected to global innovation.
Cloud Carib will participate in CANTO 2026 from August 9-12 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. On Tuesday, August 11, Eamonn Sheehy, Senior Director of Public Sector at Cloud Carib, will join Giovanni King, CEO of Blue NAP Americas, and José D. Casillas of HUB Advanced Networks for a panel discussion on building trusted, resilient and sovereign Caribbean data infrastructure while benefiting from global cloud innovation. During the conference, Cloud Carib will also sign a two-year partnership with CANTO that includes investment in the CANTO Innovation Challenge and technical infrastructure support to help winning solutions progress toward market readiness.
