About the Summit
Fourth Annual New Mexico Broadband Summit!
The Fourth Annual New Mexico Broadband Summit returns on Thursday, December 3, 2026, at the UNM Continuing Education Center in Albuquerque.
The Summit is the state's leading ecosystem convening for the leaders, organizations, and companies building New Mexico's connected future — and widely recognized as the best networking event in New Mexico's broadband community, bringing together decision-makers from across the public and private sectors to collaborate, share ideas, and build lasting partnerships.
This year's Summit comes at a pivotal time. With a new Governor, a new Legislature, continued BEAD implementation, and the rapid emergence of AI, quantum technologies, and next-generation digital infrastructure, New Mexico has an unprecedented opportunity to position itself as a national leader in connectivity and innovation.
