In this episode of Power of the Network, Tim Locker sits down once again with Jade Piros de Carvalho—now a key leader on Socket Fiber’s market expansion team. Jade breaks down what it looks like to enter new communities, the real-world challenges fiber providers face, and how policy, permitting, and local politics shape broadband deployment across the Midwest. Jade also offers an inside view on the current state of BEAD, the impact of federal policy changes, and what these shifts mean for rural America, private capital, and the future of broadband infrastructure. The conversation is honest, tactical, and highly informative for anyone working in telecom, government, utilities, or fiber construction.
