FBA Presents – Power of Public-Private Partnerships: Kendall County’s Blueprint for Broadband Success

Join us for an inspiring webinar showcasing the success story of Kendall County — one of the fastest-growing regions in metropolitan Chicago — and their groundbreaking approach to broadband innovation. Learn how a visionary public-private partnership helped Kendall County pioneer a community-owned infrastructure project that not only closed connectivity gaps, but also fueled economic growth, educational opportunity, and faster, more reliable emergency response systems.

Discover how the County minimized risk, maximized community benefits, and laid the foundation for long-term success — and take away practical insights into:

• A first-of-its-kind financing model leveraging grants and tax-free bonds — with no financial risk to the County
• Flexible, scalable, and cost-effective broadband solutions designed to grow with community demand
• The real-world impact of enhanced connectivity across education, business, emergency response, and agricultural innovation

Join us on May 27 to hear directly from the Connect Kendall County Commission Chair and leaders from PivotTech, Ciena, and AECON as they share the power of public-private partnerships in building the future of broadband infrastructure.
