- In January 2025, Corning announced stronger-than-expected revenue forecasts, driven by robust demand for its optical fiber products across AI-powered data centers and 5G backhaul infrastructure in North America.
- In October 2024, AT&T signed a multi-year fiber supply agreement worth over USD 1 billion with Corning, aiming to accelerate its fiber-to-the-home rollout and reach over 30 million locations by 2025.
- In April 2025, Corning introduced its next-generation high-density optical fiber cables at the OFC Conference, specifically designed to meet the bandwidth and latency requirements of AI-driven and hyperscale data centers.
- In early 2025, leading telecom operators in the U.S. began ramping up deployments of 400G optical modules to support the growing need for higher bandwidth and ultra-low latency in metropolitan and edge networks.
