10:20–10:35 AM AMERICA’S DIGITAL FUTURE: WHAT’S AT STAKE?
As demand for always-on connectivity grows significantly, investing in a robust digital infrastructure—one that unlocks the full potential of 5G and AI—is critical to sustaining America’s global competitiveness. Close coordination between business leaders and policymakers is essential to foster innovation and high-speed internet access at scale. The CEO of one of the world’s largest telecom companies—and one of the largest capital investors in U.S. telecommunications infrastructure—discusses the policy landscape in an evolving industry and what his company is doing to secure America’s digital future.

A short history lesson: Bhutan officially opened its doors to the outside world sometime in the 1960's. Thus, most of the country is still radically underdeveloped and 68% of the population practice subsistence farming.
However, I live in Thimphu, the capital city, and though it is relatively old-fashioned (it is the only capital in the world where traffic is still directed by white-gloved policemen as opposed to traffic lights), modernization is sweeping in like an unstoppable riptide, and I see the effects of it every day. It's eerie how I can be walking along these peaceful mountain footpaths and then all of the sudden be subjected to the latest hit pop songs from the US from someone's cellphone speaker. Oftentimes that cellphone belongs to a monk or a nun in full crimson robes. Always interesting.
I often worry about the young people of Bhutan. After all, television has been in the country for about six years now, and cars about ten. This is the first generation of children to grow up with television, computers, cell phones, cars...just an astonishing amount of information streaming in constantly and loudly and differently. Bhutanese content makes up only a tiny, tiny percentage of entertainment media. Most of the music, movies, and commercials come from India or the US. I wonder about what effect this new media will have on parent/child relationships. In high school, we talked endlessly about the immigrant experience, about what it was like to pack up and leave home for a new place, about what it was like to watch your children grow into a different culture...but what must it be like in Bhutan, where you never make the choice to actually leave home, but your children are swept away from you anyway, where some new culture comes and sits all day in your living room, talking non-stop in Hindi, trying to ply you with candies and cars and hair conditioners that haven't yet arrived?
