Building a Broadband Network

Come see a special two hour panel on building a government funded network.  We have assembled a panel of professionals that will be able to lead you and your organization through the entire process of planning, budgeting, building, and operating a high speed network.  Learn some of the secrets behind navigating the process that can lead your organization to the forefront of telecommunications in the United States.  We’ll discuss how to get started, evaluating the business plan behind owning your own network, the challenges and responsibilities of having your own infrastructure, as well as a good dialogue on the products and offerings that will allow your members to provide a much more comprehensive suite of services.
