Promote acceptance of U.S. positions and proposals internationally by representing U.S. interests at treaty-making conferences, regional communications conferences and meetings, bilateral and multilateral meetings, and multi-stakeholder meetings and conferences. This measure tracks the number of accepted U.S. technical and policy positions and proposals to international treaty-making conferences, bilateral and multi-lateral meetings, multi-stakeholder meetings, and regional communications conferences and meetings.

Provide broadband technical assistance to unserved and underserved communities to attract new business investments and spur economic growth. Various communities that were unable to receive NTIA assistance during the BTOP grant period can now take advantage of NTIA’s technical expertise during NTIA’s subsequent outreach program, thereby leveraging the expansion of broadband. This performance metric measures the additional communities that NTIA will assist.

Partner with stakeholders from industry, consumer groups, government, academia, and technical community to work towards crafting a consensus on privacy and global free flow of information issues. NTIA will seek public input and comments to lay the groundwork for these challenges. NTIA’s role is not to substitute its judgment for the views of stakeholders, but rather will ensure the process is open, transparent, and consensus-based.
