The Next Generation Campus Network: Autonomous, Secure, AI-Driven

AI-driven campus networking for higher ed—reduce complexity, boost security, and connect with CIO peers in this exclusive session.

Campus networks are under pressure—AI workloads are increasing, security threats are evolving, and IT teams are expected to do more with less.

Join an exclusive group of higher education CIOs and IT leaders for an interactive working session focused on the future of campus networking. This isn’t a sales pitch—it’s a practical, peer-driven discussion centered on real-world outcomes.

Hear directly from the CIO of Albert Einstein College of Medicine on how their team modernized campus connectivity with a new approach: secure networking delivered as a service, powered by automation.

You’ll walk away with insights on how to:

• Reduce operational complexity and manual workload
• Strengthen security across your campus environment
• Build a scalable, AI-ready network foundation
• Consolidate tools and simplify network management

This session is intentionally limited to 10–15 higher education IT leaders to ensure meaningful discussion and peer engagement.
