An Inside look - Closing the #DigitalDivide with Amedeo Bernardi, Founder, The Canadian Rural and Remote Broadband Conference

With the first conference of the 2025 series fast approaching (June), I wanted to speak with Amedeo Bernardi, the founder of the Canadian Rural and Remote Broadband Community Conference to revisit the origins of the conference, how it has evolved and continues to innovate every year, and the importance of networking and collaboration in addressing broadband challenges in rural areas. The challenge of closing the #DigitalDivide is still alive and well.

The conversation highlights the shift in conference themes, the structure of the event, and the diverse demographics of attendees. We discuss the panels and workshops planned for the upcoming conference, innovations in rural broadband, and the future direction of the conference amidst changing policies and technologies.

Sponsorship opportunities are available, with booth space quickly selling out.
