If you haven\u2019t listened yet, I recently recorded a\u00a0Lead Tennessee Radio podcast<\/a> about the upcoming TNBA Annual Convention and Showcase with Jason Shelton, Tennessee Broadband Association vice president and Loretto Telecom general manager.<\/p>\n

While there\u2019s lots to share about the event, it struck me when he described 2022 as a year the broadband industry finds itself at a crossroads that he\u2019s absolutely correct \u2014 especially here in Tennessee.<\/p>\n

During the podcast, Shelton mentions, \u201cWhat we do today is definitely going to impact tomorrow, and the next generation, and a few more even after that.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s powerful when you think about it. As we find ourselves with capital from the federal and state levels, our decisions on broadband will impact economic development and the quality of life for Tennesseans for decades.<\/p>\n

As I know we will, let\u2019s do our due diligence, with the input of our peers, to ensure we make sound decisions for future Tennesseans.<\/p>\n

I encourage you to attend our conference May 31-June 2 at the Marriott Cool Springs in Franklin, Tennessee, to connect and network with industry leaders.<\/p>\n

The agenda is set, and we continue to prepare the best possible event for attendees. For 2022, we\u2019ve moved to a new golf course, Temple Hills Country Club, and added short informational sessions during the showcase on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Our keynote speakers include Tennessee Speaker of the House Cameron Sexton; NTCA Vice President \u2013 Federal Regulatory Brian Ford; NTIA Telecommunication Policy Analyst Amanda Herrera; and Tennessee Department of Economic & Community Development Broadband Director Taylre Beaty and Assistant Commissioner of Community & Rural Development Brooxie Carlton. For the full agenda, visit tennesseebroadband.com<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Early bird registration closes May 9, and we\u2019ll share more information and speakers soon. I\u2019m excited to see you in Franklin!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
