Project poster

We believe universal information access is the first step to an egalitarian society. The team worked closely with policy makers and analysts at the federal and state level to expose insights from the Digital Nation dataset, helping them arrive at data backed solutions to provide information access for all. Digital Nation data is collated by Bureau of Census by surveying 56,000 households across America on their computer and internet usage. The results of the data analysis will accelerate the goal of expanding Broadband access and adoption in America while ensuring internet remains an engine for continued innovation and economic growth.
