SUMMARY:FFB Wk 27 – Fireside Chat with FCC Commissioner Anna Gomez: The Role of Fiber in Powering the Future
DESCRIPTION:Join us on our next Fiber for Breakfast with a conversation with the Federal Communications Commissioner\, Anna Gomez\, as she sits down to talk with FBA’s President and CEO\, Gary Bolton to discuss all things broadband. \nThe conversation will explore the tradeoffs between fiber and other technologies like satellite and fixed wireless—and why she believes fiber is best positioned to support emerging applications like artificial intelligence (AI) and long-term economic growth for people\, communities and business. Commissioner Gomez and Gary will also discuss her ideas regarding the need for streamlined regulatory processes and strong public/private partnerships\, particularly with utility companies\, to accelerate broadband deployment. \nAdditionally\, the discussion will examine the current state of the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP)\, its role in closing the digital divide and address concerns about how the lack of renewed funding has disconnected millions of Americans from essential digital services and threatens the continued connectivity for millions more. \nDon’t miss this compelling and timely conversation on the infrastructure\, policy\, and innovation driving America’s broadband future. \nWith Special Guest: \n \n		\n					\n				Register Now
