WASHINGTON D.C. - The Progress & Freedom Foundation will be postponing its 15th Annual Aspen Summit, which was to be held this August in Sundance, Utah. 

PFF President Ken Ferree had the following to say about the postponement:

"In light of the current economic environment, we do not think it prudent to spend our supporters' money, or ask others to spend scarce dollars, on a lavish conference at a remote facility.  We intend to reschedule the event when economic conditions improve, and in the interim use our resources as efficiently as possible on local events and publications.  I'd also like to take this opportunity to express our continued gratitude to the media, communications, and technology communities for their continued support of PFF."

Details about a rescheduled Summit will be announced at a later date.

The Progress & Freedom Foundation is a market-oriented think tank that studies the digital revolution and its implications for public policy. It is a 501(c)(3) research & educational organization.
