About the Conference
Our mission is to provide a platform for tribal leaders to engage with entities that offer broadband solutions tailored to their communities' needs. The Connecting Alaska Consortium offers an agnostic structure, enabling leaders to initiate meaningful conversations and make informed decisions for their regions.
Broadband Opportunities
Various broadband programs were available to tribes at the time, with more expected in the near future. The Connecting Alaska Consortium was equipped to help determine which opportunities would work best in each community.
