Join us for a Virtual Wisconsin Broadband Summit as we explore how communities can increase broadband access and move closer towards digital equity.

Tuesday, November 16, 2021
9:00 AM – 12:00 PM (CST)

Access to broadband is critical for Wisconsin communities in the 21st century – connected to better business performance, entrepreneurship, higher home values, better educational outcomes, improved health outcomes, and higher worker productivity. Despite these benefits, access to high-quality broadband is limited in many communities throughout Wisconsin.

The Wisconsin Broadband Summit is organized to help Wisconsin communities enhance broadband access by:

  • understanding the importance of broadband to economic development,
  • exploring models for active networking and leadership development,
  • accessing and applying mapping, data, and survey research techniques, and
  • learning about available funding options.

This webinar was made possible, in part, by a grant from the United States Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration in support of the Economic Development Administration University Center at the Division of Extension, University of Wisconsin-Madison.
