To help you get the most out of your week, here are a few quick next steps.
1) Book your hotel with the group rate
You will receive a booking link in your registration confirmation email. Use that link to reserve your room at the reduced group rate while availability lasts.
Tip: Plan to stay through Wednesday afternoon so you can participate in the AI & Emerging Tech Infrastructure Summit.
If you did not receive the email: check your spam folder, then contact fiberconnect@fiberbroadband.org.
2) Start building your game plan
Fiber Connect is best with a plan: the sessions you want to attend, the exhibitors you want to visit, and the speakers you want to meet.
