Broadband Moves WV Forward

Economic Development
Broadband not only connects West Virginia to the world, it connects the world to West Virginia This means global access to markets for West Virginia’s existing businesses, and the infrastructure needed to create new businesses that we have traditionally lacked.

Healthcare
Telemedicine can change healthcare in rural America for the better. It lets doctors quickly get health records and use video calls to talk with patients. It also helps in emergencies and allows for virtual visits with specialists. All of this happens in real-time, right from the patient’s home. This makes sure that people in rural areas get the best medical care possible.
