WI-FI in Minneapolis: Public Ownership, or Private?

The City of Minneapolis plans to allow a single, private company to own and
operate a citywide wireless information network. Hundreds of other cities
around the U.S. -- Saint Louis Park, Minnesota to Corpus Christi, Texas --
have chosen public ownership, and have been overwhelmingly satisfied with
the choice.

Join us at the Minnesota Global Forum to learn why publicly owned
infrastructure is vital to Minnesota's information future.

Speaker: Becca Vargo Daggett, Research Associate at the Institute for Local
Self-Reliance and co-author of Who Will Own Minnesota's Information
Highways?
