Greenland and the EU – Global Gateway Campaign 2025/2026 - Infrastructure

Show transcript

I was born in Nuuk and grew up in Sisimiut.

As a child, I was always fascinated by how things

were built - bridges, buildings, connections.

I knew early on that I wanted to

become an engineer and

help shape the future of Greenland.

Today, I work at Tusass as a

Senior Project Manager, leading the submarine

cable project, one of the most important

cable project, one of the most important

projects in our country.

We are working to create a safer, stronger and more

stable internet connection for everyone

from schools and hospitals to homes.

The European Union plays a vital role for us.

The EU is contributing with essential funding -

supporting seabed research, feasibility studies

and making it possible to plan the second cable

that will connect South to North Greenland.

that will connect South to North Greenland.

For me, this project is deeply meaningful.

It’s about more than just technology

it’s about people.

It’s about giving families a stable internet connection

making it easier for students to learn

and allowing businesses to grow

so no one is left behind.

As an engineer, I’ve always wanted

to build things that last.

But this project feels different.

It connects us across fjords

mountains and oceans.

I feel proud knowing that

together with EU

we are laying the foundation

for a stronger, more connected Greenland.

Because of the EU partnership, Greenland is building

digital bridge to the world, ensuring that every connection,

from north to south, remains strong.

EU and Greenland are creating opportunities together.
