  • Identifying the tools and information our communities need now and in the future to maximize the benefits of being connected and online for economic competitiveness and vitality
  • Enabling more businesses to get some of the over $100 billion in e-commerce pie that’s supported by rural broadband (source: The Economic Impact of Rural Broadband, by Hans Kuttner, Hudson Institute)
  • Increasing the number of choices entrepreneurs have in the types of businesses they start or how they can grow what they already have
  • Helping our youth access more and better career options so they don’t have to leave to have a good job
