On Monday-Wednesday 22-24 May 2023 the Indigenous Connectivity Institute will host the Indigenous Connectivity Summit 2023 (ICS 2023). The Indigenous Connectivity Summit brings together Indigenous community members, leaders, network operators, researchers and policymakers with a common goal: to connect Indigenous communities to fast, affordable and sustainable internet. The ICS has grown to be the primary convening for Indigenous leadership and allies working across the United States and Canada to build a digital future on their terms.
