What’s the real economic impact of digital equity? How does it affect the rate at which businesses open in rural communities? Does it increase income? How about GDP? These are the questions the Center of Rural Innovation (CORI) set out to answer in a ground-breaking, data-driven study to demonstrate the true value of reliable broadband in non-metro locations.

Join Gary Bolton, CEO of the Fiber Broadband Association, as he sits down with Dr. Amanda Weinstein and Dr. Adam Dewbury to discuss the full impact of their study, “Beyond Connectivity: The Role of Broadband in Rural Economic Growth and Resilience.” Discover the methodology, metrics, and motives behind the research and learn about the case studies enforcing the findings in this eye-opening episode of Fiber for Breakfast.
