New York State Wireless Association 2025

 The New York State Wireless Association (NYSWA) gathered at The Times Center for a full day of forward-looking discussions on the future of connectivity, innovation, and infrastructure.

More than 350 industry leaders from across telecommunications, technology, and government came together to explore how AI, edge computing, and broadband expansion are reshaping New York’s digital landscape.

Keynote speaker Cathy Piche, COO of Towers at Crown Castle, emphasized that the future of wireless innovation relies on strong infrastructure and smart partnerships. A fireside chat with Hope Knight, President and CEO of Empire State Development, reinforced broadband’s role as a driver of economic growth and equitable access.

Throughout the day, The Times Center’s state-of-the-art theater and technology provided the perfect backdrop for conversation, collaboration, and connection—culminating in an evening networking reception that carried the momentum forward.
