Chris Vein's main goal is to rollout Wifi FAST
W2i Digital Cities Convention (West): Executive Summary
Vein said: The most telling thing for me is to go to a housing project and talk to the people in those projects who ask me, ‘When? When are they going to get affordable or free access to the Wi-Fi. We need it now.’ When you talk about the time it takes to make sure it’s a fair and open selection process, you can see the disappointment. ‘Here it is, government again, going to disappoint me.’”
People come up to Vein in the street and ask, ‘When is it going to be? What are you going to do for me? I want it now?” “The general reaction to the people we serve has been incredibly positive response to this.”
Understandable since the Gavin Newsom promoted Wifi for San Francisco over a year ago.
