Interconnection Academy and Nomad Futurist Foundation Partner to Tackle the Digital Skills Gap

The Interconnection Academy, initiated by DE‑CIX, and the Nomad Futurist Foundation have announced a new partnership aimed at strengthening global digital‑infrastructure education and addressing the industry’s growing skills shortage.

Expanding access to interconnection knowledge

Through the collaboration, both organizations will co‑develop new learning modules that make the fundamentals of interconnection, cloud connectivity, and digital infrastructure more accessible to students and early‑career professionals. The content will be shared between the two academies and integrated into the Interconnection Academy’s online learning platform.

Preparing the next generation of tech talent

As demand for digital‑infrastructure expertise continues to rise, the initiative focuses on building a stronger talent pipeline for the industry. By combining the curricula and missions of the Interconnection Academy and the Nomad Futurist Foundation, the partnership aims to equip learners with the foundational skills needed in an increasingly interconnected world.
