Guernsey, a British Crown dependency situated in the English Channel, is relatively small, spanning just 65 square kilometres. The island's population is concentrated in the capital, St. Peter Port, where nearly one-third of the island's 63,000 inhabitants reside. Despite its size, Guernsey boasts a robust telecommunications sector, with an advanced digital infrastructure supported by multiple subsea fibre optic cables connecting it to the UK and France. This investment has resulted in a highly competitive market with high-speed broadband and mobile services widely available. Guernsey's innovative approach to infrastructure is also seen in its renewable energy sector. The island's tidal power potential is currently being explored, and there are several onshore wind turbines and solar installations in operation. The technology sector in Guernsey is well-established, with a focus on digital services and e-gaming. The island's government actively supports technology development through initiatives such as the Digital Greenhouse, a centre for technology and innovation.
