For three decades, North Carolina technologists, educators, and innovators have set the pace for national networking by leveraging the power of the North Carolina Research and Education Network (NCREN). As one of the country’s oldest and most enduring broadband networks, NCREN has changed the way we work and live by providing the foundation for accelerating innovation, managing cutting-edge infrastructure to give tremendous potential for education and commerce, and increasing the economic vitality of the state.
Since the 1990s we have recognized our community’s achievements with NCREN Community Day. This annual event allows constituents, colleagues, supporters, and friends to gather face-to-face in a celebratory and festive environment while openly discussing critical issues and sharing exemplary cases of integrating the services of NCREN to achieve our member’s goals and missions.
We cordially invite you to join us on Wednesday and Thursday, November 5 – 6, 2014 at the James B. Hunt Jr. Library on the NC State University campus in Raleigh, North Carolina. We are truly grateful that NC State will host NCREN Community Day for a second consecutive year.
Community Day 2014 marks the 30-year anniversary for NCREN! This special milestone is a time to commemorate the past while we eagerly anticipate The Next 30!
This year’s theme entices us to begin planning our future network, bandwidth, video, and beyond the horizons for the entire community! While keeping many traditions, the program will be designed to encourage your active participation as well as offer a few surprises.
We look forward to seeing you in November.
Sincerely,
Todd Broucksou
Senior Director of NCREN Community Support
