> In recent years, North Carolina has made great strides in expanding access to high-speed Internet – also known as broadband – throughout the state. However, for us to remain competitive in the 21st century, we need to effectively take advantage of our growing broadband infrastructure by supporting the technology needs of our businesses and organizations.

> As Secretary of the North Carolina Department of Commerce, I invite you to participate in an important project NC Broadband is conducting that will enable us to better understand the technology North Carolina businesses and organizations use. The project will provide a more robust understanding of broadband’s impact on the state’s economy.

> In 2010, the State of North Carolina performed a similar survey that provided essential insights concerning the state’s broadband needs.  Data from this year’s survey will again identify needs, but it will also show the progress made from recent statewide and local broadband initiatives and will provide a path toward ensuring that North Carolina businesses and organizations maximize the benefits from the state’s digital infrastructure.

> After the surveys are completed, a personalized scorecard will be provided to up to 500 participating businesses. The scorecard will provide customized insights and suggestions to improve profitability and operational efficiencies of individual businesses through the utilization of commonly available online technologies.
>  
> I encourage you to complete this online survey before October 31, 2013 to tell us how your business or organization currently accesses and uses the Internet.
