The Community Technology Leadership Program pilot kick-off session features Michael Curri, CEO of Strategic Networks Group (SNG), which conducted the 2016 broadband assessment for the State of Tennessee, broadband utilization in Chattanooga. For example, SNG found that business broadband utilization here is only 2% higher than the state average, and estimates that a modest increase in utilization by employers with less than 50 employees could create nearly 450 new jobs. The Community Technology Leadership Program is designed to tap this potential. Dr. Greg Laudeman, executive and founder Eduity, will preview the Community Technology Leadership Program (CTLP) pilot, and discuss how the program could impact the local economy. Eduity is conducting the CTLP pilot here over the next few months with support from the Mozilla Foundation’s Gigabit Community Fund. Attendees will have the opportunity to get involved in the discussion and participate in the CTLP pilot.
