services arm of Fortune Global 500 telecom leader NTT, will
continue to support NANOG as a Diamond Premium Sponsor of its
meetings and activities into 2018, including NANOG 71, 72 and 73,
company officials announced today.
“NTT Com is committed to supporting the community outreach and
information exchange platform provided by NANOG and its meetings,”
said Michael Wheeler, Executive Vice President of the NTT
Communications Global IP Network at NTT America. “Not only do they
provide a forum to discuss technical issues that can advance
Internet technology, but as importantly, to agree on industry
guidelines and best practices that promote collaboration.”
The North American Network Operators’ Group NANOG is an
association that focuses on the technologies and systems that make
the Internet function. Hundreds of network engineers and product
professionals from major North American carriers, content
providers, cloud companies, multi-tenant data centers, hosting
companies and interconnection service providers attend NANOG’s
tri-annual meetings.
The three NANOG events that NTT Com has agreed to sponsor
include: NANOG 70, in Bellevue, Washington, June 5 - 7; NANOG 71,
that will take place October 2 – 4 in San Jose, California; and
NANOG 72, scheduled February 5 – 7, 2018, in Atlanta, Georgia.
“We are very pleased to have the continued support of NTT Com,”
says Betty Burke, NANOG Executive Director. “The company’s passion
for advancing Internet capabilities around the world continues to
play an important part in helping to support the NANOG mission,
which is to build and strengthen the community of industry experts
working together for the common good of the Internet.”
