Hudson’s digital innovations to advance economic prosperity and provide better government services is being recognized locally and globally. Recently, Hudson was invited to become a member of the Global Institute for the Study of the Intelligent Community, a think tank that is in partnership with the internationally acclaimed Intelligent Community Forum (ICF) for businesses, universities and governments to expand the world’s knowledge about the creation of Intelligent Communities.

The City’s push to bring a Gigabit-speed fiber network to Hudson in 2015 is what prompted an invitation to join this global think tank to exchange ideas and expertise that drive progress.

“The creation of the Velocity Broadband fiber network for business retention and attraction put us on the map,” said Paul Leedham, Hudson’s Chief Innovation Officer. “But it has morphed into so much more.  With the help of ICF, we’re changing the community’s culture that will position Hudson for the future.”
