Ron Brown: a champion of network technology. (Commerce Secretary Ron Brown dies in a plane crash)
1996
Overview
The network industry lost an important supporter in the week of Apr 1, 1996, when Commerce Secretary Ron Brown was killed in a plane crash. In the Clinton administration, VP Al Gore is often credited with giving primary consideration to technology, but it was Brown and his department that focused on what the administration calls the National Information Infrastructure (NII). Brown was particularly active in promoting the information superhighway during 1994, when it began to become clear that a worldwide information structure was coming into being. In a 1995 meeting in Brussels, Belgium, Brown and Gore pressed telecommunications ministers and government officials to open their markets to competition. Brown regarded information technology as a means for uplifting people both in the US and elsewhere.
