Maroochydore’s high-speed internet drives innovation 

Did you know Maroochydore City Centre is home to one of the fastest internet connections on Australia’s east coast?

In 2019, the Sunshine Coast became the first regional area in Australia to land an international submarine cable.

The cable, part of the 7,000km Japan-Guam-Australia network, and NEXTDC’s SC1 Sunshine Coast Data Centre now allows businesses to connect internationally, bypassing Sydney.

This direct connection has been a game-changer for the Sunshine Coast.

Not only has the project strengthened the region’s digital infrastructure, it has unlocked new opportunities for economic growth, job creation and global engagement, elevating the Sunshine Coast’s reputation as more than a lifestyle destination but a hub of innovation and opportunity. 

In today’s highly connected world, businesses which are ‘plugged in’ to Maroochydore City Centre’s new digital ecosystem are enjoying unprecedented benefits.
