Does anyone know a high energy college student who has some sales experience and wants to break into the data center (/interconnection /digital infrastructure) industry? OIX Association needs a part-time, contract admin; details: https://lnkd.in/gy_WT5WA I'd be happy to explain why I think this would be a great intro/"internship" for the right person - DMs welcome ((does not have to be a student, I just think that would be a great jump start for such a person)) #job #JobOpening #ContractWork #DigitalInfrastructure

The future of our industry is shaped by the organizations bold enough to make it better. That’s why on National Nonprofit Day, I’m proud to support two amazing nonprofits making an impact in the digital infrastructure space. As Co-Chair of the Community Engagement Committee at OIX Association and an Ambassador & Marketing Committee Member at Nomad Futurist, I’ve seen firsthand how both of these organizations are making huge strides in moving our industry forward: 🌐 OIX is playing a critical role in advancing standards for internet exchanges and data centers, creating a stronger foundation for the entire ecosystem. 🌱 Nomad Futurist is leading the way in empowering the next generation of digital infrastructure leaders through mentorship, education, and opportunity. At fifteenfortyseven Critical Systems Realty (1547), we talk a lot about space and power, but we also know that what really makes this industry thrive are the people and communities behind it. That’s why it’s so incredible to have nonprofits dedicated to keeping our industry strong and pushing it forward, and why supporting them matters so much to me. #NationalNonprofitDay #NomadFuturist #OIX #1547Realty #DigitalInfrastructure #Interconnection
