Technology Association
Connect Ohio is a public-private partnership that partners with technology-minded businesses, government entities, community organizations, and universities to accelerate technology in the state and close the digital divide.
Connect Ohio is a comprehensive initiative to blanket Ohio with broadband Internet access and dramatically improve the use of related technology. The program is the result of a partnership between the State of Ohio and Connected Nation, a national non-profit organization that specializes in increasing technology access and literacy.
Connect Ohio works across all sectors of the state economy in partnership with telecommunications providers, information technology companies, public agencies, business leaders, community leaders, researchers, and universities in an effort to meet specific goals, which include:
- Affordable broadband availability for all of Ohio;
- Dramatically improved use of computers and the Internet by all Ohioans;
- Local technology planning teams that include every Ohio community;
- A meaningful Internet presence in all Ohio communities, to improve citizen services and promote economic development through e-government, virtual education and e-health solutions; and
- A policy and regulatory framework that encourages continued investment in communications and information technologies year after year.
