Chamber Connect! Tour Stops in North Dakota

The U.S. Chamber stopped in Fargo, North Dakota, as part of its six-city road show to illustrate the benefits of more widely available broadband.

 The July 14 forum was hosted by the Chamber, national nonprofit Connected Nation, and the Chamber of Commerce of Fargo Moorhead. North Dakota Lieutenant Governor Jack Dalrymple (R) delivered the keynote address.

Panelists including Lisa Feldner, chief information officer for the State of North Dakota, Lee Tomkins of e-government services at NIC, and representatives from the health care, education, and business communities discussed how broadband technology can create a better business environment, more effective economic development, improved healthcare, enhanced education, and more efficient government.
