		<description><![CDATA[Last week, the World Economic Forum (WEF), in collaboration with the World Bank and Bain &#038; Company, issued the report, “Enabling Trade: Valuing Growth Opportunities.”  The report concluded that reducing supply chain barriers in two key areas – border administration and transportation and telecommunications infrastructure – could increase global GDP up to six times more than total tariff elimination.   The WEF paper calls on governments and the private sector to tackle these barriers through coordinated action, something which we here at Cisco strongly support.]]></description>

The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) today launched an important new proceeding that, together with a lot of hard work and some policy leadership, will allocate much-needed radio spectrum for broadband.
