  • About Us

    The Accra Internet Exchange (Accra-IX) is a Non-Profit organization aimed at building and growing the Internet ecosystem through colocation, peering and interconnection in Ghana.


    The Accra-IX was founded by a team of internet experts and digital entrepreneurs who understand and are well-versed in networking and interconnections.


    Through Accra-IX, networks within the region exchange local traffic among themselves thus reducing the need for expensive international peering traffic. ‌Accra- IX is located in the heart of the internet ecosystem in Accra, PAIX Data Centres, Ghana’s main connectivity hub, with all international, regional, and local networks in the market having a presence at this centrally located facility.

Local Peering,
​Global Reach

Through Accra-IX, networks within the region will be able to exchange local traffic among themselves thus reducing the need for expensive international peering traffic.


We encourage hyperscalers and content delivery networks (CDNs) to come into the region following the traffic growth at the Accra Internet Exchange.

Board Members

Accra-IX is guided by a board of experienced network and infrastructure leaders drawn from our founding members — bringing decades of combined expertise in peering, data centre operations, and internet infrastructure across Africa and beyond.
