Join the Jamboard – Let’s Brainstorm Live

Let’s collaborate and engage live so that we can make the most of our time! Utilizing the Jamboard app powered by Google Cloud, we have the capability of collecting thoughts, jotting down ideas, and creating in a collective space, together.

See it, Show it, Map it

If we’re working in a collaborative discussion on a regional plan, there’s no need to just talk about where you are, we have an interactive map that let’s you show and document the concerns, areas in need of improvement or opportunities, right on the map!

More to Say? Tell us!

We want to know about your broadband access experience or if you have thoughts to share! Michael Baker International’s goal is to provide the support and resources for organizations and communities to achieve full and affordable connectivity. Tell us about your connectivity.
