Wednesday, November 24, 2021, 12 Noon ET — Giving Thanks for Better Broadband

Although primarily focused on physical broadband networks, the Infrastructure, Investment and Jobs Act passed on November 5 also includes $2.75 billion for digital equity and inclusion. This special “Giving Thanks for Better Broadband” edition of Broadband Breakfast Live Online will probe the dimensions of broadband adoption and digital equity. We’ll hear from experts on digital inclusion and how to make sure that robust broadband networks are widely used.
