US Ignite and Juniper Help Cities Spark Economic Growth

Across the US, often in rural, less populated regions, there are broadband deserts where only the very few and extremely affluent enjoy fast Internet. The nonprofit US Ignite works directly with these underserved communities to accelerate economic growth and unlock the area’s potential by making it possible to connect everyone to the vast richness of high-speed broadband infrastructure.
