Edge

If you missed our webinar last Friday for USDLA, you can watch it here. Laura Romeo, Ph.D. & I discuss preparing for Title II changes and how to improve your institution's efforts in inclusion and accessibility. Reach out to one of us to learn more about how Edge can help!

💥 ESnet Executive Director Inder Monga is on the cover of the new issue of EdgeDiscovery, a publication from Edge, the nonprofit technology consortium for education, government, and healthcare organizations! Inder's "leadership is reshaping network infrastructure to accelerate scientific discovery," says Forough Ghahramani, EdD, in her editor's note. "As Al, quantum computing, and data-intensive research demand unprecedented connectivity, Inder's work in pioneering advanced networking solutions ensures that researchers can seamlessly move from data to insight." In this in-depth profile of Inder, other technology leaders also share their perspectives on Inder's work with ESnet — including vint cerf, aka one of the "Fathers of the Internet" and currently Vice President and Chief Internet Evangelist for Google: “I have watched ESnet evolve over many years and under more than one leader. Inder Monga stands out, not only for his impressive technical engineering talents, as evidenced by his 25 patents and multiple high-profile projects, but also for his rare ability to assemble, inspire, and lead cross-functional teams with skills far beyond his own expertise," says Cerf. 👏 👉 Read the story: https://lnkd.in/gzSf-x3T 📸 Cover photo by Bart Nagel
