PREVIEW OF COUNTY-WIDE FTTH PROJECTS IN MINNESOTA

COOK COUNTY/ARROWHEAD ELECTRIC PROJECT

LAKE COUNTY PROJECT

SIBLEY COUNTY PROJECT

The TISP Forum has been a venue where discussion on county-led broadband development has occurred for some time. Several years ago TISP co-sponsored the first Regional Broadband Conference held in Dakota County. Since then several counties have launched broadband projects. Three of those projects have set their sights on FTTH networks and the leaders of those projects will be presenters at the TISP Forum on February 17. Please join us.

The idea behind this forum is simple and essential: purposeful exchange on key issues with engaged stakeholders to create a better information future
