[1st-mile-nm] Media Industries Summit, Jan 11th

[Richard Lowenberg]

The Governor's Office is sponsoring a special Media Industries Summit:
"Media Industries for New Mexicos Future", on Jan. 11, preceding the
fourth annual Media Industries Conference, on the 12th .

The by-invitation-only Summit, presented and hosted by the UNM ArtsLab,
will gather leaders in education, film, animation, games and media
industries in New Mexico for a working session to identify and suggest
strategies for continuing to build a sustainable media industry cluster in
our state, with a determined focus on Education and Workforce Development,
Building New Mexico Based Production, and New Mexico Media Next.

I expect to attend and to bring up the need for a statewide initiative to
grow an integrated. 'true' broadband infrastructure, needed to support
media and all other state eco-social initiatives, as well as to foster
local (1st-mile) efforts to plan and deploy 'open' broadband for all.
