Who We Help
SNG offers solutions aligned to your goals, turning broadband’s potential into measurable success.
Communities and Economic Development
Community Leaders
Local governments at the municipal or regional level face increasing challenges to maintain and grow the local tax base, deliver essential services, and be fiscally responsible. Ensuring the availability of high quality broadband is essential infrastructure for keeping and attracting businesses and implementing smart city / neighborhood services. Putting that broadband to work is essential to enabling a healthy economy, improving local quality of life, and enhancing community vitality.
Small Business Associations / Chambers of Commerce
Local associations often survive based solely on the business value they provide members. SNG’s Small Business Growth Program provides your members real insights and ideas for growth.
Economic and Regional Development Agencies
Organizations focused on “economic gardening,” or growing a local economy through individual business growth, rely on SNG to show businesses how the Internet can help them sell and save. Helping businesses help themselves accelerates growth and local job creation.
