The Path to Universal Broadband

USTelecom’s Broadband Investment Forum brings together leading national policymakers, business leaders, and technology innovators to assess solutions for achieving universal connectivity in America.

At the dawn of a new Administration and Congress, and in the midst of our ongoing pandemic, conversations will focus on exploring new policy pathways to promote broadband investment and innovation, and ensure access and affordability for all in need.

We will also honor the 2020 USTelecom Broadband Heroes – leaders from across the nation making distinguished and game-changing contributions to connect our communities.
