WISPA represents the interests of the evolving wireless Internet service provider (WISP) ecosystem: small innovative entrepreneurs who provide fixed wireless and other broadband solutions to consumers, businesses, first responders and community anchor institutions. WISPs bring critical Internet access to millions of Americans in unserved and underserved rural, suburban and urban areas of the country, quickly and affordably, offering cost-effective, competitive and innovative service options where they did not previously exist. Our mission is to help small local innovators and entrepreneurs usher in the next wave of evolving connectivity solutions through a strong, vibrant, and participatory WISP community; promote state-of-the-art industry standards, technology and education; and advocate sound public policy which encourages investment, development and deployment of high speed broadband to all Americans, no matter where they live. In short, WISPA seeks to build an environment where WISPs flourish, customers are happy, and communities grow through robust 21st century connectivity and competition.
