Part 1 Digital Inclusion Summit
Channel: NOWCastSA
Date: 2018-10-30

How do we solve the digital divide in San Antonio, Texas? Staring up what may feel like an overwhelming mountain of a challenge, where do we begin? Let's start with a conversation.
Presented by the Digital Inclusion Alliance of San Antonio, the theme for the 2018 digital inclusion summit is Connect Todos: Digital Inclusion and Upward Mobility. The digital divide creates educational, economic, health, and civil engagement problems for our community. A sustainable and inclusive strategy is a must, and we need everyone to participate in the solution: Local governments, equity advocates, Internet service providers, financial institutions, non-profits, anchor institutions. We can form innovative public-private partnerships to address the challenge. Speakers will present new data, discuss policy solutions, demonstrate broadband access gaps, gather community input, and imagine a more connected San Antonio.
