New Media, New Networks: The Evolution of Content on the Internet

In wake of the FCC Broadband NOI, broadband workshops on broadband, content and cybersecurity - as well as Genachowski's recent announcement on net neutrality - several well-respected experts will gather to talk about their viewpoints on network policy - problems, opportunities and common ground. These are the most important string of events centered around this topic in over a year, and we encourage you to take part in the discussion.
