You’re Invited: Breakfast with Internet & Telecommunications Policy Expert Larry Irving

As North Carolina prepares for continued growth over the next decade, the state must address the availability and adoption of reliable broadband for citizens in both rural and urban areas alike. On Monday, February 10, North Carolina State University’s Institute for Emerging Issues is hosting the ReCONNECT to Technological Opportunity Forum. During this event, participants will explore how broadband and internet policies affect our communities and how our state’s digital potential could help us all succeed. Learn more about the forum here.

Ahead of the event, we’re pleased to share that the NC Chamber is presenting an exclusive opportunity for our members to join a conversation with the event’s keynote speaker, Larry Irving, president and CEO of the Irving Group.
