[1st-mile-nm] Connecting New Mexico – The Future of Broadband in our State

[Richard Lowenberg]

Connecting New Mexico – The Future of Broadband in our State

Some of us subscribed to this list attended yesterday’s Connecting NM 
sessions in Albuquerque.   I want to congratulate the organizers, 
primarily Senator Udall’s Office, for this important and timely meeting, 
which was free and remarkably well attended (see attached image).  
Senator Udall, who serves on a number of federal committees that address 
our national broadband agenda, introduced presenters from NM and from 
the co-sponsoring NTIA in DC, stewarding information sessions and 
discussions on bridging digital divides, schools networking, new 
technologies, policy issues, community broadband planning, rural 
aggregation demand and partnering strategies, tribal matters, federal 
and state funding, next steps and much more.   The program was 
additionally sponsored by Senator Heinrich’s Office, City of Albuquerque 
and Broadband USA.

The devil (reality of broadband related development in New Mexico) is in 
the details and in what we do next.   Stay involved and stay tuned 
online as we work to shape an intelligent, healthy and sustaining 
networked future for the people of this state.
