SUMMARY:FFB Week 14 - The Potential for Commercial Quantum Networking
DESCRIPTION:Quantum 2.0 technology might seem right out of a science fiction movie\, but real use cases are becoming relevant. Robust local area quantum networks for scalable quantum computing and quantum-safe security for real-world digital platforms that provide cryptography solutions that harden against future quantum computing capabilities and threats are two of the most near-term use cases; we will also be exploring other quantum networking use cases. If you’re interested in learning more\, hear from Mark Wippich about the latest in quantum networking. \nSpecial Guest: \nMark Wippich\, CEO\, MPW \n		\n					\n				Register Now

SUMMARY:FFB Week 15 - An Analyst's Perspective on North America's Historic Broadband Boom
DESCRIPTION:North America’s fiber networks are set to undergo rapid expansion in the latter half of this decade\, driven by unprecedented levels of public and private investment\, alongside innovative vendor solutions and the emergence of new fiber providers\, including utilities\, municipalities\, and cooperatives. Omdia’s latest forecast projects a staggering $35 billion expenditure on fiber broadband access equipment in North America between 2024 and 2029. Join Fiber for Breakfast as Jaimie Lenderman delves into Omdia’s latest forecast and explores what lies ahead in the coming months and years as we enter this historic era. \nSpecial Guest: \n\n\n\n\nJaimie Lenderman\nResearch Manager & Principal Analyst\nOmdia\n\n\n\n		\n					\n				Register Now
