Time
2:45 PM - 4:30 PM
Description

State broadband officers played a critical role in helping our ISP members prepare for the BEAD program.  As NTIA has approved the vast majority of state final proposals for BEAD and most states have selected their BEAD subgrantees, it is now time to learn about other issues that state broadband offices are working on that can benefit our members. This roundtable discussion will include State Broadband Officers, ISPs, and policymakers discussing what states can do to reduce bureaucratic hurdles and costs and support expedited network construction.
