We wish to call your attention to an exciting project, the Loop Media Hub. This will be a showcase for our region as well as a living testbed for the development of new technologies and commercial applications. We'd like to see as much of the local tech community get involved as possible. This is a great opportunity for new and existing start-up ventures, universities and other local organizations to get involved in a collaborative project. The Request For Information (RFI) has just been released along with a calendar of related events, beginning very soon, all open to the public:
The City of University City, Washington University, The Center of Creative Arts, The Regional Arts Council, The St. Louis Development Corporation and the University City Chamber of Commerce are considering a plan for the development of a "one Gigabit Internet ecosystem for the community along The Loop Trolley right of way". The ecosystem plan will include provisions for ultra-gigabit connectivity, wireless services, smart phone apps and directory services, entrepreneurial incentives, economic development incentives, creative innovations and energy policy. The Loop Media Hub initiative makes use of a collaborative community engagement process through which the actual plan will be developed.
Please note the following instructions and public meeting dates below:
