Jeb Bush said that Jacksonville will be the site for Florida's next Network Access Point, accelerating the speed and efficiency of moving data on the Internet to the rest of the world and back. The governor announced that Texas-based Tera Space Networks will construct the NAP and invest up to $80-million in the first phase of development.
