“Given the very high bandwidth demand of some research applications, we believe there will be great opportunities to partner within the research and education community,” states David Howson, President of Sales and Customer Management for Zayo. “With our dedicated team, we will be better positioned to understand the needs of this community and therefore better support the Regional Optical Networks.”
Zayo will be holding a Roundtable event on August 6th and 7th in Boulder, CO with the R&E Community. The event is a collaborative effort between the Regional Optical Networks and Zayo to discuss the current state of IT and telecom requirements to be successful in the education space.
