ONLINE: The Future of Broadband in Wisconsin

press release: Join “Two Bald Guys” Friday at noon when we will be joined by Brittany Beyer, Executive Director of Grow North, and Angie Dickison, Broadband Development Manager for the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED). We will discuss broadband and internet access in Wisconsin and what improvements can be made.
