Join the Knight Center of Digital Excellence, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, Wayne State University and leaders in government, education, health care, arts and culture, business, community development and social services to discuss how we can work collectively to promote universal broadband access and transformative applications in Detroits communities.

Your input is important as we identify priorities and plan a strategy for Detroit to excel in the 21st century, starting with pilot programs in the Central-Woodward-North End and Northeast-Osborn neighborhoods. These programs will serve as models not only for Detroit, but for urban environments across the United States.
