Lessons Learned and Shared
Learning about what communities did that worked and what didn’t work is one of the most valuable aspects of the Summit. On April 10th, at 10 a.m., Christopher heads up a discussion with folks from four different communities across the U.S. to discuss what they learned in deploying their publicly owned fiber networks. Each of these communities faced adversity and found a way to change course to turn difficulty into positive outcome:
One of the challenges of evaluating capital-intensive local broadband projects is that they typically lose money in their early years. Come learn from four communities that have overcome significant challenges – and learned invaluable lessons along the way.
Participating on the panel will be:
- Dan Patten from MINET
- David Post from Salisbury, NC
- Roger Timmerman from UTOPIA Fiber
- Angela Imming from Highland, IL
