The Infinite Build: Why Rural Broadband Never Stops w/ Amedeo Bernardi, CRRBC Founder
Amedeo Bernardi – CRRBC Founder – on connecting Canada’s independent operators
Rural Canada has a connectivity problem the big telecom players can’t solve alone. Amedeo Bernardi saw that gap in 2019 and built CRRBC (the Canadian Rural and Remote Broadband Community) to connect the independent operators, vendors, and government players doing the real work in remote areas. After ten conferences across the country, it’s become something rare: a working ecosystem, not just a networking event. On this episode, Amedeo talks about why Saskatchewan matters, why the build is never actually finished, and what “infinite build” really means for the next phase of rural broadband.
