Come meet with local innovators, educators, entrepreneurs, students, and community advocates and learn about what it means to be a “Mozilla Gigabit City”.



Speakers representing the technology, education, and arts will kick things off before time is set aside for organizations of all shapes and sizes to mix, mingle, and discuss projects, partnerships, and ideas. How can we leverage high-speed networks and technology to make the Eugene area more equitable, innovative, and connected?



See agenda & other materials here.

Local Mozilla Gigabit Portfolio Manager Craig Wiroll will be on hand to discuss Mozilla, the grant application process & timeline, and answer any questions you may have.

The initial deadline for submitting a letter of intent to the Mozilla Gigabit Community Fund is July 5th. Applications are due August 1st. Once funded, the pilot period for grantees will take place from October 30, 2017 - February 16, 2018.
