The Fiber Connect 2023 show opened its doors yesterday to welcome early attendees and exhibitors in preparation for this week’s conference that ends Wednesday at the Gaylord Palms in Orlando.
The event offers a myriad of opportunities for business and market development, technology demonstration and peer-group interaction. Executives from a broad scope of industry sectors will deliver their perspectives to commercial network operators, mobile network operators, electric cooperatives, municipalities, digital infrastructure asset owners and developers, investors, technology suppliers, enterprises and more.
“Fiber Connect 2022 was one of the largest conventions in our history,” said Gary Bolton, President and CEO of Fiber Broadband Association, “and we expect this year’s conference to be our largest, most successful event ever.”
While Sunday was focused on exhibitor set-up and registration, the show starts in earnest today with a general session “welcome” delivered by Joseph Jones, President of On Trac, followed by a “state of the industry” address to the general session by Bolton. A series of Breakout Education sessions follows covering a myriad of topics such as: “Local Engagement Best Practices presented by FBA and NACo,” “The Ecology of Fiber Broadband: Forging a Sustainable Future,” and “Middle Mile and Fiber – Now We’re Talking.”
The Expo Hall will be open for business and networking at 3:30 p.m. EDT and the night will be capped off with a Havana Nights themed social presented by SQUAN.
On Tuesday, in addition to the breakout sessions, the day will feature a Women in Fiber Luncheon and, later, a Women in Fiber Meet Up. For the full schedule of events, click here.
