Within the scope of its work in the BELLA II Project, the Latin American Cooperation of Advanced Networks (RedCLARA) invites governments in Latin America and the Caribbean, EU delegations in the region, telecommunications companies and the like, and all public and private sector stakeholders, to participate in the Request for Information (RFI) that seeks to identify potential existing and/or planned connectivity infrastructure projects that may have synergies with the objectives of BELLA II.

BELLA II (Building the European Link to Latin America and the Caribbean) seeks to reduce the digital divide in the region and strengthen and expand the digital ecosystem in Latin America and the Caribbean. To this end, it is analyzing the potential interest of various actors from the public and private sectors in being part of the project through different partnership and service provision alternatives. The "Request for Information to Stakeholders (RFI)" instrument will serve to achieve this objective.

With the understanding that adequate connectivity and a strengthened digital ecosystem are the key aspects to facilitate relationships and exchanges between companies, research centers, educational institutions and academic networks, the result of this RFI will be a driver for achieving the strategic objectives to strengthen education, science, technology and innovation of BELLA II (project coordinated by RedCLARA and co-financed by the European Union).

In the document "Request for Information to Stakeholders (RFI)", in addition to finding all the details about RedCLARA, the infrastructure needs, the required service conditions and the alternatives for participating in this project are described. Furthermore, at the end of the document, a series of guiding questions are presented to determine participants' interest in being part of the project. The information provided will be treated confidentially and only for the purposes of BELLA II.

Responses must be sent by January 20, 2024 to the following email address: RFI_BELLAII@redclara.net.
