Episode 40 - Plenty of submarine cables in the sea with Elena Badiola, Exa Infrastructure

Ever wondered about the practical challenges of connecting our continents?

In this podcast episode, we talk with Exa Infrastructure's Elena Badiola about the process of getting subsea cables underwater: from environmental surveys to climate change, to funding challenges.

Elena also shares her experience of living on a cable ship for five weeks after an earthquake caused an outage - and how a military coup almost stopped her from getting back home.
