This week on The Communicators, Craig Mundie, Microsoft Chief Research & Strategy Officer, and Mark Gorenberg, Managing Director for Hummer Winblad Venture Partners, discuss the recent report from President Obama’s science advisors entitled “Realizing the Full Potential of Government-Held Spectrum to Spur Economic Growth.” The report recommends an executive order to convert 1,000 MHz of spectrum for shared use under a three-tiered structure. The report calls for a norm for spectrum use based on sharing versus exclusivity.
Both guests serve on the President’s Council of Advisers on Science & Technology.
