Harbor Link Holdings LLC (Harbor Link), a Maryland-based telecommunications infrastructure leader, has secured a $45 million investment from Millennium Syndicated Holdings (MSH) and ROC Venture Group (ROC). This funding will complete a 40-mile fiber optic network along the I-95 corridor, connecting Baltimore and the Washington DC metro area to Northern Virginia’s digital ecosystem.
The I-95 corridor is currently served by outdated telecommunications infrastructure that cannot meet modern data demands. Harbor Link’s state-of-the-art fiber optic network will bridge this gap, supporting next-generation technologies like hyperscale cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI). With 35% of the world’s hyperscale data centers located in the DC region, the need for a reliable, high-capacity network has never been greater.
“Our investment in Harbor Link represents a commitment to future-proofing critical digital infrastructure,” said Aaron Stafford, Partner at ROC Venture Group. “This project is ideally positioned to serve the largest data center traffic market in the world.”
James Kyle, Partner at MSH, added: “Millennium is proud to be part of this groundbreaking venture. This investment highlights our dedication to building sustainable digital infrastructure that supports global connectivity.”
Felix Dialoiso, CEO of Harbor Link, emphasized the transformative potential of the project, stating, “Harbor Link is not just about fiber; it’s about building the foundation for innovation. This network will address critical gaps in existing infrastructure, ensuring the DC region remains a global leader in connectivity.”
Harbor Link’s fiber network will play a pivotal role in linking Baltimore and the DC Metro area to Northern Virginia’s data center hubs. Its underground, scalable design will meet the stringent demands of hyperscale providers and the Department of Defense (DoD), ensuring unmatched reliability and security. Nearly 50% of construction is complete, and permits are secured for 95% of the planned route. The network is set to go live in early 2026, delivering modern connectivity to support innovation and growth in the region.
With the support of ROC and Millennium, Harbor Link is poised to redefine digital infrastructure along the I-95 corridor, addressing critical connectivity needs and powering emerging technologies.
