Learning with Google.

Last month, Seagard Managing Director Callum Mair took part in Google's Subsea OFC (Optical Fibre Communication) Summer School in Finland.

A globally recognised course, participants submitted an application before being approved.

Callum is keen for himself and the Seagard team to stay at the forefront of the Subsea Cables sector, and this course helped to expand his knowledge.

Callum said:

"This was a fantastic opportunity to network with global peers and industry leaders from companies at the forefront of the subsea cable industry.

"I will be encouraging our team to go on the course next year as the quality of the lecturers and lectures provided a perfect overview of the whole industry.

"The school was held at a serene setting that didn’t allow for distraction and made networking and studying very easy."

Of course, all work and no play isn't good for anyone, so Callum also added:

"Recreational activities were plenty, and it was fantastic to see people from every corner of the globe cooperating in competitive football matches."

Roll on the 2020 event.
