Next Steps for CPF Broadband Programs

The $10 billion Capital Projects Fund (CPF) is in full swing. The U.S. Treasury Department has already started receiving and reviewing state grant plans, while other states are still preparing their submissions. One key question for all states is how anchor institutions will factor into these plans, especially considering CPF’s relative flexibility. Join SHLB for a discussion with Treasury’s CPF director and state broadband leaders covering the CPF process, how states’ plans are coming together, how they complement anticipated Broadband, Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) program investments, and the role of anchors in connecting their communities. Additional speakers to be announced.
