Organized by KC Digital Drive, the Gigabit City Summit is your chance to learn how to make your own city smarter, faster, and better. The conference is designed especially for leaders in “gigabit cities,” where a fiber-optic broadband network is available or in planning stages. At this unique learning experience, you’ll get to:
- Discover what Kansas City did to seize the opportunity to become one of the country’s first gigabit cities with the arrival of Google Fiber.
- Hear from people with on-the-ground experience with a large-scale gigabit fiber buildout.
- Join leaders from cities around the country as we explore how ultra-high-speed Internet is reshaping our cities and neighborhoods.
- Get expert insight from the front lines, and find out how your city can benefit from lessons learned.
- Expand your network and horizons.
- Share ideas for how gigabit fiber can transform communities and improve people’s lives.
You’ll also get to enjoy keynotes from cutting-edge smart city writers and doers Blair Levin (Executive Director for Obama’s Broadband Plan), Boyd Cohen (Smart Cities Wheel creator), Susan Crawford (The Responsive City author) and Joe Reardon, former mayor of Kansas City, Kansas, the first city to receive Google Fiber.
