Our Network of Innovators, Coders and Creators 

Jersey is an island network of coders, creators, inventors, and investors who are building jersey’s digital future. It measures just 45 square miles with a population of around 100,000 and offers all the components of a larger country but in a small, campus-like space. Aside from its national government, the Government of Jersey, there is one electricity company, one water company, an international airport, a passenger and cargo port.

Diverse Industries and World-class Network Infrastructure

Jersey has a diverse combination of urban and rural industries which include financial services, tourism, agriculture and a digital sector that currently employs over 3,000 people. All broadband connections in Jersey are Gigabit Fibre to the premises (FTTP). Jersey also benefits from three separate 4G networks and three dedicated Internet of Things (IoT) networks (NBIoT and Two LPWANs including LoRa), making it the ideal testbed for companies looking to trial new ideas.

Use Cases

Asian Hornets

In 2023, Jersey experienced a surge in the numbers of the highly predative, invasive Asian Hornets.

We invited Cornwall-based Far Out Thinking Company (TFOTC) for a visit, to share with us their initiative for detecting and tracking hornets using AI – a great example of the Jersey Sandbox in action.

Drone Trials

Jersey has been at the forefront of a cutting-edge drone trial to examine the reliability and safety of uncrewed arial technology, with the potential for it to transform supply chain operations for the island.

Alongside Ports of Jersey and Volant Autonomy, Digital Jersey assisted in the facilitation of the trial, which was one of only two such initiatives worldwide – the other one being led by NASA.
