Bridging the Digital Divide: Powering a Future of Inclusive Connectivity
The pandemic exposed the limitations of our various infrastructures. But it also clearly illustrated the inequities, both physical and digital, that exist between those with access to adequate digital infrastructure and those without.
According to Pew Research, 57% of lower-income adults have significantly less access to home broadband than others.
With unprecedented funding to help provide more equitable access to broadband, government leaders have begun honest and open discussions on how to expand secure and affordable access to digital infrastructure in their communities.
Join Cisco on March 31st at 2 pm ET for a discussion on:
- Building a collaborative planning model for state and local governments to expand broadband infrastructure in their communities
- Solutions for expanding internet access and addressing affordability
- Federal funding sources available today
