Martinique, a French overseas territory located in the Caribbean, has a population of around 370,000 people, mostly concentrated in the capital, Fort-de-France. The island's hilly and volcanic terrain presents challenges for infrastructure development, including telecommunications. Despite this, Martinique boasts a fairly modern and well-developed telecommunications infrastructure. Fixed broadband and mobile services are widely available, with 4G networks covering most of the island. Martinique has also seen some innovative infrastructure solutions, including the successful implementation of a submarine fibre-optic cable for improved international connectivity. While the renewable energy sector is still developing, there has been increasing focus on harnessing the island's geothermal potential. Martinique's technology sector is less mature, with limited local industry, although the presence of a technopole, or technology park, indicates efforts to foster growth in this area.
