One year ago, we helped launch Next Century Cities, a collaboration between local governments that want to ensure fast, reliable, affordable Internet access for all. Our own Chris Mitchell, as Policy Director, has helped shape the organization with Executive Director Deb Socia and Deputy Director Todd O'Boyle.

Over the past 12 months:
- Membership has grown from 32 communities to 121
- Population represented by Next Century Cities has climbed from 6.5 million to 23.9 million
- Member states have increased from 19 to 33
The organization has been recognized by the White House, testified before Congress, and has been instrumental in launching a number of awards. The organization has developed resources and organized events to assemble members who want to share innovative ideas. Learn more about their accomplishments at the blog.
We look forward to another year of working with Next Century Cities toward the goal of fast, affordable, reliable Internet access for all.
