I have already posted about this event, OBD’s Connecting One Minnesota-Broadband Meeting / Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development. But it seemed worth a post to talk about the event. I’m excited to hear from “National Broadband Perspective and Insights from Leading Associations” in the morning. It will be interesting to see how other states are dealing with BEAD these days.

Then the MN Broadband Task Force is meeting over lunch. Attendees are invited to join and if you haven’t attended a Task Force meeting in the past, I encourage you to show up. It’s instructive to hear what they talk about, and it would be great for the Task Force members to hear from the public!

Also, I’m on one on of the afternoon panels talking with some great folks on Community Engagement & Outreach: Building Broadband Momentum in Minnesota. Please come and help me remember creative solutions local communities have used in the past.
