ARConnect

Last week, Mayor Stephanie White invited us to the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the community’s inaugural internet service. We celebrated with the City of Keo , rejoicing in closing the digital access divide in Keo. Thanks for inviting us! Special shoutout to Inspire Internet for launching this exciting new service in 12 Arkansas communities. This long-awaited achievement is a moment to celebrate!

2025 was a big year for broadband in Arkansas. From expanding access in rural communities to growing the broadband workforce and launching new tools to help Arkansans navigate affordability, ARConnect made meaningful strides statewide. None of this happens without strong partnerships, dedicated teams, and communities working together.

We’re proud of the progress made — and even more excited about what’s ahead.

Join ARConnect for the final Arkansas Broadband Leaders Network (ABLN) meeting of 2025, happening today at 10 a.m.
