Report
Highlights
Community wireless has emerged as a nascent trend among local governments in Europe and North America as cities and counties seek to provide free or low-cost Internet access to constituents. Most jurisdictions are looking to establish public-private partnerships to fund these initiatives.
Recent events such as hurricanes, blackouts and terror attacks highlight governments' need to have organizational and technological contingencies to prevent service interruptions. Vendors play a critical role in educating local governments about their need for continuity of operations and disaster recovery planning and the solutions it requires.
