Our friends at SURFnet have produced an excellent video about the open exchange point NetherLight. The video explains NetherLight role as central part of the European e-Infrastructure for research and education. It also makes a strong case for open exchange points in the global R&E networking ecosystemt, and the role they play in  the Global Network Architecture.

NORDUnet has been a connector at NetherLight for many years, using it as a hub for European and global connectivity. NetherLight is one of the landing points of the ANA collaboration for trans-Atlantic networking.
