About this Event
"Connection is communication, and without it, we have devastation," says Mr. Frank, one of our Canopy subscribers. His words underscore just how crucial connectivity is, and that's exactly what our "Driven to Connect" documentary explores.
With support from Microsoft Airband, DigitalC created this film to chronicle the good, the challenging, and the meaningful stories from the first year of the historic four-year plan to bridge the digital divide—for good. Join us for an up-close look into how Cleveland is transitioning from “worst to first” in connectivity and setting a national standard.
