My friends at the Institute for Policy Innovation have put together an excellent conference, "Unlocking the Future of Communications," for November 12 in Washington, DC. FCC Commissioner Robert McDowell is a keynoter, heading a lineup of notable speakers.
Communications policymaking is entering a crucial phase in the next 12-18 months. If you're interested in learning about the issues from a cast of knowledgeable experts, I commend to you the IPI conference. Details here.
