Proposed Agenda The Office of Strategic Planning & Policy Analysis of the Federal Communications Commission

(FCC)provides panelist names and other information about an event in the Open Internet roundtable series: “Economics of Broadband: Market Successes and Market Failures,” which will take place on October 2, 2014. This roundtable was previously announced in a Notice. At that time, it was unclear whether the roundtable would be a “meeting” of the Commission. As such, that Notice was not published in the **Federal Register** . This Notice shall serve as notice that a quorum of Commissioners may be present at the roundtable, in compliance with part 0, Subpart F of the Commission's rules. This Notice does not, however, change the “permit-but-disclose” status of the *Open Internet* proceeding under the Commission's *ex parte* rules. Economics of Broadband: Market Successes and Market Failures 1:30-1:45 p.m. Welcome and Opening Remarks 1:45-5:00 p.m. Economics of Broadband: Market Successes and Market Failures *This roundtable will first consider incentives to provide high quality open internet access service and the relevance of market power. It will then turn to policies to address market power, consumer protection, and shared benefits of the Internet.* *Panelists:* Jonathan Baker, Professor, Washington College of Law, American University Nicholas Economides, Professor of Economics and Executive Director of the NET Institute, Stern School of Business, New York University Thomas Hazlett, Hugh H. Macaulay Endowed Professor, Department of Economics, Clemson University Christiaan Hogendorn, Associate Professor, Department of Economics, Wesleyan University John Mayo, Professor of Economics, Business and Public Policy, McDonough School of Business, Georgetown University Hal Singer, Principal, Economists Inc.; Senior Fellow, Progressive Policy Institute *Moderators:* Tim Brennan, Chief Economist, FCC Jonathan Levy, Deputy Chief Economist, FCC Federal Communications Commission.
