Dr. Paroma Sanyal

Please join Carolyn and Jen for their June Lunch Nugget conversation with Dr. Paroma Sanyal, co-leader of the Telecom, Media and Internet practice at the Brattle Group and co-author of a recent report, “How Much Licensed Spectrum Is Needed to Meet Future Demands for Network Capacity?” Prior to joining Brattle, Paroma was Chief Economist at the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC’s) Wireless Telecommunications Bureau.

Our LNTT discussion focuses on Dr.Sanyal’s recent research into demand for high speed mobile broadband connectivity versus supply of spectrum for full power, licensed commercial use. We also explored the ramifications for U.S. economic growth and global competitiveness should demand outpace supply.
