Meta’s Data Center in Louisiana will hold more information than we can imagine, but what good is all that data if it’s not communicated in a way people can understand? The Meta Data Center is a marvel of infrastructure, but there is still a painful gap in the way technically complex information is presented to the public. Bridging that gap is key — because when people understand data, they trust and can then make informed decisions, innovate, and thrive. What an exciting time for my community! #Meta #MetaDataCenter #HollyRidge #RichlandParish #AI #DataLiteracy #DataTranslation #DataCommunicator #LocalInfluencer #Louisiana

Pinnacle Group, Inc. is featured in Women's Enterprise Magazine (WE USA) celebrating 10 years of success with Comcast! We could not be more proud of the work we’ve done together to deliver innovative and inclusive procurement in professional services. Comcast is a true leader in the supplier diversity space and we have seen firsthand the difference their commitment makes to their suppliers and to the results they are able to achieve. Our CEO, Nina Vaca, said it best. “Companies often give minority-owned firms commodity business- not strategic and impactful work. Comcast’s vision of having Pinnacle play a strategic role in something so important demonstrated that it was already thinking bigger than most companies about diversity and inclusion.” #diversity #supplierdiversity #diversityandinclusion #workforcesolutions #partnership #msp #managedservices #professionalservices #platform #solutions #procurement #systems #vms #vmsconfiguration #vmsintegraiton #strategicservices #technology #processimprovement #automation #integration #pinnacle #pinnaclegroup https://lnkd.in/gmuNvd_q

AT&T lost my business. Dan of York Apiaries just moved our internet service for $30/month less with better bandwidth. It's not about effort, it's about results. If you are considering new or renewal telecom services through AT&T at the enterprise or business level you should rethink the proposition. You might pay more but the TCO is a killer to your communications and revenue. We called and talked for the past two months. They were rude, insolent, and lacked solutions. Don't take an enterprise or business contract with AT&T.

Q: Did you know that AT&T will start full RTO next month? A: AT&T is requiring its employees to return to the office five days a week starting next month, according to Business Insider. For the past year, employees have followed a hybrid model, working from one of AT&T’s nine corporate hubs at least three days a week. To prepare for the full return, AT&T plans to "enhance" its office spaces to accommodate the increased number of employees, aiming to avoid the space challenges that have reportedly hampered Amazon's return-to-office efforts. This announcement comes amid a new analysis from Revelio Labs, which finds that companies with mandatory return-to-office policies are growing their workforces more slowly than those offering hybrid options. ____________________________________________________________________ If you found this valuable, please ♻️ reshare it with your network, and 🔔 follow me for more. #leadership #leadershiptip #learning #vulnerability #inspired #real #communication #culture #linkedinpremium #careeradvancement #professionalnetworking #exclusivetools #buisnesssuccess #oneplusedge #plusonepledge

This morning I read an article on Lee Kestler, CEO of EdgeCore Digital Infrastructure . EdgeCore have a clear focus on deliberate, intentional growth. As Lee puts it "We have very ruthless prioritization." Here are three things I learned: ☑ Kestler’s experience in both Data Centers and utilities put's the edge in Edgecore. He understands renewables, hydrogen, battery storage, and a lot about EV charging. ☑ They’re planning 300+ MVA deployments to meet rising demands. They are going to be 300MVA or bigger. As lee say's "It's not like you need 30MW anymore." ☑ Kestler's experience with DuPont Fabros and Vantage shows he knows how to build big and smart. Now, with EdgeCore, he’s ready to tackle energy challenges and expand strategically. Looking to acquire land parcels and operate at the intersection of energy and networks. Our market isn’t going away. The future of Data Centers lies in scalable, energy efficient designs that can adapt to the growing demands of AI and digital infrastructure. #datacentre #edgecore #digitalinfrastructure #ai [EdgeCore - PHO1 facility Phoenix, AZ]

📣 News from the broadband world! The NTIA has given the green light to six more states for BEAD funding, bringing us closer to closing the digital divide. 👏 While the end of the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) presents challenges, many states are proactively adapting their low-cost plan strategies to ensure affordable internet access for low-income households. I'm particularly excited about the innovative approaches taken by New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania in leveraging BEAD and other funding sources to expand broadband infrastructure and promote digital equity. Their initiatives, focusing on broadband mapping, infrastructure deployment, and affordability, are setting a great example for the rest of the country. As we accelerate our fiber future, collaboration between states, providers, and communities is key. Let's continue to work together to ensure that everyone has access to reliable and affordable broadband. #broadband #fiber #digitaldivide #connectivity #BEAD #ACP
