National Research and Education Network (NREN)

A National Research and Education Network (NREN) is a specialized high-speed internet infrastructure that connects universities, research institutions, and government agencies within a country. It facilitates fast, reliable data sharing, collaboration, and access to advanced computing resources essential for scientific discovery and education. Unlike regular internet services, NRENs prioritize secure, high-capacity connections to support large data transfers, real-time collaboration, and innovative research initiatives, ultimately strengthening a country's ability to advance knowledge and technological development.
