T1W: Access to Broadband as a Barrier to Inclusivity; the Digital Divide

Throughout the weeks leading up to the inaugural Toward One Wisconsin inclusivity conference, we will be previewing sessions from each of our four tracks.

Internet access can be a major catalyst for economic growth and social connection. With more and more sectors of the economy relying on the internet, and with the increased use of teleworking, it is clear that access to the internet is a major factor in ensuring people and regions are not left behind.

This panel, “Access to Broadband as a Barrier to Inclusivity,” will focus on this exact issue. There will be a discussion on broadband and its link to workforce development.

Panelists:

• Tim Herwig, District Community Affairs Officer, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
• Desiree Hatcher, Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.

Register today and join us April 11-12 for this and dozens of other great sessions across our four conference tracks!
