Consider this your invitation to the next installment of the ILSR and AAPB Community Broadband Film Series!
Slated for September 3rd from 4 to 5:00 pm ET, the livestream event will feature the film “Rocketeers: The UTOPIA Fiber Story” – an eye-opening documentary about how a publicly-owned fiber network has ignited local Internet choice and competition across dozens of cities, delivering connectivity at the speed of light.
Hosted by ILSR’s Community Broadband Networks team and the American Association for Public Broadband (AAPB), the event will showcase the film and will be followed by a red carpet discussion with UTOPIA Fiber CEO Roger Timmerman with updates from Yellowstone Fiber and Bountiful Fiber.
“Yes, community broadband has its challenges, but it can also be fun. It’s in that spirit we want to highlight short films that demonstrate how solving connectivity challenges at the local level can really empower communities and remind all of us that we can shape our own digital futures,” said ILSR Community Broadband Director Christopher Mitchell.
