Together, these measures will invest more than $2 trillion of federal funds into American manufacturing, infrastructure (including broadband) and advanced energy. ## [***REGISTER FOR THE MADE IN AMERICA SUMMIT***](https://app.hubspot.com/payments/f4qAqEFUQu?referrer=PAYMENT%5FLINK&ref=broadbandbreakfast.com) As Broadband Breakfast’s Made in America Summit takes shape, we encourage you to register now to attend this important event on Tuesday, June 27, in Washington. The summit’s four sessions will explore the intersection of these vital big-picture topics: - (R)e-building Energy and Internet Infrastructure - Semiconductor Manufacturing and U.S.-Chinese Tech Race - Challenges to Reorienting America’s Supply Chain - Making Cleaner Energy and Enhancing Green Industry #### [PANEL 1: SCALING UP THE SMART GRID](https://broadbandbreakfast.com/made-in-america-summit-2023/) The Inflation Reduction Act invests billions of dollars in clean energy projects that work to limit carbon emissions and other pollutants, including solar, wind, nuclear, clean hydrogen and more. But will its investments in clean energy founder on the lack of infrastructure deployment, or by delays in federal, state and local permitting? This session will also consider the intersection of “smart grid” infrastructure, long-haul and local, and the synchronicities between the broadband and energy economies. **• Lori Bird**, U.S. Energy Program Director and Polsky Chair for Renewable Energy, World Resources Institute **• Xan Fishman**, Director of Energy Policy and Carbon Management, Bipartisan Policy Center **• Quindi Franco**, Assistant Director, Government Accountability Office **• Robert Glicksman**, Professor of Environmental Law, George Washington University Law School **•** Other panelists have been invited #### [PANEL 2: DOMESTIC MANUFACTURING AND THE CHIPS RACE](https://broadbandbreakfast.com/made-in-america-summit-2023/) The CHIPS and Science Act provides $280 billion in funding to spur semiconductor research and manufacturing in the United States. Semiconductors are key components of consumer electronics, military systems and countless other applications, making a domestic supply chain critically important — particularly amid an increasingly hostile technological race with China. How successful will efforts be to bring semiconductor manufacturing to America? **• Gene Irisari**, Head of Semiconductor Policy, Samsung **• Shawn Muma**, Director of Supply Chain Innovation & Emerging Technologies, Digital Supply Chain Institute **• Maryam Rofougaran**, CEO and Co-Founder, Movandi Corporation **• Rishi Iyengar** (moderator), Global Technology Reporter, Foreign Policy **•** Other panelists have been invited #### [PANEL 3: THE FUTURE OF BUY AMERICA REQUIREMENTS](https://broadbandbreakfast.com/made-in-america-summit-2023/) The Build America Buy America Act, part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, established a domestic content procurement preference for all federally subsidized infrastructure projects. Although waivers of Buy America requirements have been proposed for certain projects — such as Middle Mile Grant Program recipients — it appears unlikely that these will be extended to initiatives such as the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment program, despite requests and warnings from industry leaders. Although fiber-optic cable production is on the rise, significant issues remain in America’s semiconductor and electronic equipment supply. How will these issues be addressed in broadband and other infrastructure projects? **•** ***Panelists to be announced*** #### [PANEL 4: CREATING AN AMERICAN GREEN ENERGY INDUSTRY](https://broadbandbreakfast.com/made-in-america-summit-2023/) The Inflation Reduction Act establishes requirements for the use of American-made equipment in clean energy production. How will those requirements impact green energy development? How will the resulting projects interact with other ongoing infrastructure initiatives? What will it take for America to establish itself as a clean energy superpower? **•** ***Panelists to be announced*** Early-bird registration of $199 until Friday, June 9 + government and Broadband Breakfast Club rate.
