MIAMI, Florida (February 6, 2025) – Leading telecom operator C&W Communications recently took centre stage at CANTO’s 41st Annual General Meeting (AGM) where senior executives shared valuable insights on the transformative role of emerging technologies in modern governance.
Waldo Hooker, Vice President, South Caribbean, delivered a compelling presentation on how digital advancements are reshaping government operations and enhancing public services.
“Emerging technologies are becoming increasingly critical in empowering governments to improve efficiency, foster citizen engagement, and deliver high-quality public services,” he said.
Addressing over 200 delegates at the Renaissance Hotel in Curaçao, Hooker highlighted telemedicine, e-learning, IoT smart cities, and surveillance and public security as the four key areas where today’s gigabit technologies are driving significant change.
“Gigabit technologies are the foundation of a smarter, more connected future – driving advancements in healthcare, education, urban development, and public safety. By harnessing these innovations, we can empower governments, enhance public services, and improve lives across the Caribbean,” added Hooker.
“As we move towards a unified and sustainable Caribbean gigabit society, C&W Communications remains committed to investing in cutting-edge technologies and strategic partnerships that empower governments, businesses, and communities.
Together, we are building a smarter, more connected future for the region, today.”
Themed “Towards a Unified and Sustainable Caribbean Gigabit Society,” the AGM provided a vital platform for industry leaders to discuss trends, challenges, and opportunities shaping the future of the Caribbean’s telecom and entertainment sectors.
CANTO is the leading industry association for telecommunications organizations in the Caribbean, playing a pivotal role in advocating for digital transformation, policy development, and innovation across the region.
The Bahamas will host the 40th Annual CANTO Conference and Trade Show at the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar in July.

Hasn’t C&W gotten enough out of the Caribbean… that they have moved their offices from the UK to Miami, to further exploit the Caribbean Nations? They have been offering APUA broadband services at extortionate prices for years now. I can only hope that each Caribbean Island develop their own services and send back those colonizers from whence they came
C&W’s focus on emerging tech is commendable, but I hope the local infrastructure is ready to support these advancements efficiently.
how are we ensuring that it’s accessible to all parts of Antigua and Barbuda, not just the tech-savvy?
This could really help improve connectivity and innovation in the region.
