Public Private Partnerships (PPP)

Broadlinc is leveraging Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) in an innovative way to expand broadband capacity across rural Spokane County. By working with a range of internet service providers (ISPs) and infrastructure partners, we are building high-quality, open-access fiber and wireless networks.

A public benefit open-access network is a broadband infrastructure model (independent of the technology – fiber, wireless, hybrid) where multiple internet service providers (ISPs) can use the same network to deliver service to customers. Unlike traditional broadband models where a single provider owns and controls access, open-access networks allow for greater competition, improved service options, and better pricing for consumers.

Broadlinc is committed to developing and maintaining an open-access broadband network to support a competitive and diverse marketplace as a public entity devoted to public benefit solutions for our constituents. Our mission is to ensure Spokane County households, business and Community Anchor Institution (CAIs) have access to affordable, sustainable and competitive high speed internet service.
