Cisco CEO John Chambers: “Broadband Speeds Our Economy”
In a guest post on GigaOm.com, Cisco Chairman and CEO John Chambers argues that the U.S. needs “a broadband strategy befitting a country that has long been a technology leader and innovator.”
He states, in part, “Now that President Obama has signed the $787 billion economic stimulus package into law, the real hard work begins: using that money to create jobs. If spent wisely, this package has a chance at fundamentally reforming the U.S. health-care system, making our economy energy efficient and providing Americans with the training and skills required to succeed in a 21st century global marketplace.” Fundamental to all of this, of course, is having the broadband infrastructure to support these goals.
