Chairman Pai Remarks at University of Mississippi Tech Summit

This tech summit is focusing on an important topic: improving the lives of Mississippians through communications technologies. Already today, you’ve heard discussions about the next generation of wireless connectivity and the new applications and services that they’ll enable. I see in the program that I am officially the “Guest Government Speaker.” So my job is to talk about what the federal government can do not only to encourage innovation and infrastructure deployment, but also to make sure that these new technologies will be accessible to all Americans, especially those in rural communities.
