While reliable broadband connectivity has brought economic, health and educational benefits to many, disparities in nationwide broadband access, adoption, and usage remain. In April 2017, NITRD formed the Broadband Research and Development Team (BRD) to address related federal agency broadband research challenges and facilitate collaborative research and development. This effort was called for in the 2017 National Broadband Research Agenda (NBRA) which was developed in response to concern about the pace of research on broadband deployment, competition, and adoption.
