A Message from Dr. Samuel Conn
We are living in exciting and changing times as organizations and institutions in a networked world continue to design and implement their digital DNA and bring innovation to the enterprise. As the incoming president and CEO, I am delighted as I meet our various members and officers, and learn more about how NJEDge.Net can provide value, support, and service to their technology initiatives. Building on a solid past reputation and a spirit driven by value attainment and community ethos, the future for NJEDge.Net looks promising and bright. As we engage in a future planning process that includes re-envisioning how we bring optimal value to members, restructuring for more operational efficiencies and service, and re-emerging with a future state operation, our members will remain the center focus of our purpose-built network.
Technology continues to change the landscape for all our members. Integrated platforms that support the full life-cycle of the student; technology, space, and pedagogy combining to create new ways of learning; digital content at the center of a 21st century learning culture; and technology-enhanced learning all characterize the challenges we face. Looking to better provide value and service in higher education, government agencies, libraries, healthcare organizations, and K-12 schools, NJEDge.Net is uniquely positioned to be the “go-to”, trusted technology partner. Leveraging technology to promote member success is paramount to our mission and vision.

The road ahead for NJEDge.Net involves increased member collaboration, internal assessment and self-study, collection of data, and research to construct our next strategic plan. Believing that with our members we are stronger together, NJEDge.Net offers the potential to rise among its peers, expand its base of support, ensure best-in-class infrastructure, deliver new capabilities, and promote quality and transparency in all facets of operations.
