The Future of the Connected Community: The Intelligent Ohio Framework

Dublin, Ohio - For Full Venue List See Program

The City of Dublin, Ohio envisioned the future of connectivity back in the early 2000’s when it built a robust municipal network to serve its schools, hospitals and provide a conduit for entrepreneurs. The network fed a city that exploded with business activities and is today the anchor of the “Intelligent Ohio” concept, which seeks to connect Intelligent Communities in the state for sustained regional economic growth. Dublin is one of several Intelligent Communities that continue to shape the future of connectivity. Each has taken the telecommunications and broadband network in new directions. The 2022 ICF Summit will bring these cities as well as their businesses and investors together for a two-day gathering designed to help any city or town shape its future.More about the ICF SummitThe ICF Summit is unlike any ”smart city,” urban planning or economic development conference you will attend.
