Based on the most recent FBA/ RVA consumer research study, the desire for high quality broadband has never been stronger. In addition, the preference for fiber broadband versus other types continues to grow. Fiber wins in terms of recent churn, NPS scores, and high likelihood of switching if available.

The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) requires defining project areas for BEAD funding.

Glen Fishbine from Breaking Point Solutions will lead a discussion on project areas for deploying BEAD funding in Washington.

At this meeting, the Task Force plans to vote on reports and recommendations discussed during the Task Force’s term. This agenda may be modified at the discretion of the Task Force Chair and the Designated Federal Officer.

Members of the public may email questions to the Task Force at precisionagtf@fcc.gov.

Over the past few months, FBA and NTCA have released modules from their Playbook 3.0 that provides deep dives on key aspects of what states will need to tackle in their initial proposals. With volumes of states’ initial proposals starting to be released, a panel of experts will cover how to ensure these proposals are maximizing opportunity for all through BEAD funding.
