Reforming the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
The world once known as “telecommunications” is changing dramatically. New technologies, new business models and new policy challenges lie ahead.
With a new administration, is the Federal Communications Commission truly equipped to deal with immediate challenges that it will face?
This joint presentation of Public Knowledge and Silicon Flatirons will explore the future of the FCC by convening a leading group of academics, current and former FCC officials, and leaders from the public interest community. Presenters will compare future visions, explore historical lessons and, though a series of papers specially written for this conference, offer a comprehensive set of recommendations for the creation of an FCC well-prepared to confront contemporary challenges.
This event will take place from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
