Under the agreement, IG Group will provide Connectbase with strategic advisory services focused on identifying and engaging high-value prospects across the data center, cloud services, AI neocloud, hyperscaler, and subsea sectors; facilitating executive introductions and meetings; and supporting strategic opportunities from initial engagement through contract finalization and project execution.

The new engagement brings together Connectbase’s technology, data, and connectivity-commerce capabilities with IG Group’s global industry relationships and expertise spanning connectivity, data centers, digital infrastructure, and economic development. It represents a significant expansion of the relationship between the two organizations and establishes a foundation for deeper, long-term collaboration.

The agreement builds on the companies’ successful work surrounding The Connected World LIVE! 2026 (TCWLIVE!), taking place September 8–11 at the Marriott Marquis Chicago.

InterGlobix Magazine’s role as Media Partner further extends the reach of the ideas, innovations, and industry perspectives emerging from TCWLIVE! On September 9, the magazine unveiled its latest cover and an in-depth story featuring Connectbase.

“The cover story captures the vision, innovation, and people behind Connectbase’s evolution and growing impact on the connectivity ecosystem,” said Jasmine Bedi, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of InterGlobix Magazine. “Unveiling this special cover at TCWLIVE! gives our global readers an inside look at how Connectbase is helping reshape connectivity commerce. It is a story about technology, leadership, and the power of an industry ecosystem working together.”
