ABOUT BROADBAND ENHANCEMENT AND THE ADVISORY COUNCIL
The Wyoming Business Council’s broadband program was built to ensure every citizen and business has access to affordable, reliable, redundant, and future-proof broadband. The 11-member advisory council and program manager were enabled by the 2018 Wyoming Legislature. Since then, we continue to pursue ways to make Wyoming a national leader in mapping and addressing rural broadband needs.
We encourage every Wyoming resident and business, including families with K-12 students, to participate in our broadband speedtest and surveys so we can better understand broadband needs across the state. Take the speedtest and survey at wbc.pub/BB_SpeedTest.
