The Silicon Flatirons Center brings to campus individuals from legal, technical, regulatory and business backgrounds to discuss issues facing the telecommunications community. It creates an environment for analyzing the continually changing dynamics in the telecommunications industry and prepares students for leadership in this important area. The program pursues three basic goals: (1) to elevate the debate around technology policy issues; (2) to facilitate networking and the development of "human capital" in the Colorado technology community; and (3) to inspire student interest in technology law.
