Description
One of the reasons Businessweek, Forbes, and many other publications rank the Triangle on the top of their “best of” lists is due to our extensive technology knowledge base. It is imperative that we support the advanced infrastructure required to maintain this reputation.
On Thursday, Nov. 13, we will be co-hosting a program on our advanced infrastructure, the addition of ultra-high-speed Internet to our market and how this unique resource will give the Triangle a competitive edge. I hope you will attend our Life in the Fast Lane: High Speed Fiber in the Triangle event and find out why the ultra-high-speed fiber infrastructure, which is 10 times faster than current broadband speeds, will matter to your business and our community.
Larry Downes, Harvard Business Review, CNET Contributor, Internet industry analyst and best-selling author, will serve as our keynote speaker and share his expertise on business strategies in an evolving technological world.
The event will also feature several local business and community leaders who will address:
- What ultra-high-speed fiber is
- The benefits it provides to a community, and
- How it will impact our economic growth and development.
