WASHINGTON, — Thursday, Sept. 12, the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) Technology Partnership will host their inaugural fall policy forum featuring keynote speaker Ajit Pai of the Federal Communications Commission, followed by two panels of community and policy experts who will discuss The Future of Broadband, Security and Privacy for LGBT Communities. From the future of broadband to security, privacy and confidentiality in a digital world, this forum brings together LGBT organizational leaders, government policy makers and experts to conduct an open dialogue about the impact of communications, security and technology policies on LGBT communities.
The LGBT Technology Partnership encourages the continued early adoption and use of cutting-edge, new and emerging technologies by providing information, education and strategic outreach for LGBT communities. They are a national, nonpartisan group of LGBT organizations, academic institutions and high technology companies whose mission is to engage with critical technology and public policy leaders for strategic discussions at all levels. The Partnership ensures that cable, telecommunications and high technology issues of specific concern to LGBT communities are addressed in public policy conversations.
