We're less than two weeks away from The Independent Show taking over Minneapolis, and NCTC and ACA Connects have planned a show that is packed with more content and exhibit floor time than ever before.

The conference, which will run from July 31-August 2, couldn't come at a better time for either association. NCTC is picking up steam when it comes to its members launching mobile service through its MVNO deal, and attendees will be able to hear from early adopters during a breakout session Tuesday at 11:20am at the Minneapolis Convention Center.

ACA Connects members have BEAD on the mind, but a retransmission consent cycle is also pushing for an enhanced focus on the need for reform. A discussion on the paradigm will also be held at the show at 1:30pm on Tuesday with ACA Connects Chair Patty Boyers and Alpine Group Principal/Chairman Rhod Shaw.

If you haven't registered yet, not to worry! The Independent Show is also offering day passes as a flexible and more affordable option for folks that otherwise may not be able to attend.

Cablefax will be covering all things Independent Show from the show floor for those unable to attend every session. Keep an eye out for our coverage on Cablefax.com and Cablefax Daily!
