What is World Wi-Fi Day?
It is a platform to recognize and celebrate the significant role Wi-Fi is playing in cities and communities around the world and understand how Wi-Fi is helping to reduce digital poverty through innovative projects that will ‘connect the unconnected’.
World Wi-Fi Day is a unique worldwide initiative organized by Wireless Broadband Alliance under the leadership of Connected Community Forum (CCF).
