How NextLight helped ignite municipal broadband in Colorado

November marks the tenth anniversary of NextLight: the municipal broadband provider for the city of Longmont, Colorado, launched in 2014 as the first municipal broadband network in the state. On this episode of Light Reading's The Divide, we discuss what led the city to be the first in the state to pursue municipal broadband and how they overcame hurdles like Colorado's now-defunct law preventing public networks. We also talk about how NextLight's connectivity has impacted Longmont over the last ten years, takeaways for other communities considering municipal broadband—and more.
