Colleagues,

 

Apologies for the cross-posting, but I wanted to remind you all that the Cloud Forum call for proposals ends this Friday. Please consider submitting a proposal and please also share with colleagues who are doing interesting work in the cloud and who would be able to travel to NYC for the Forum.

Colleagues,

 

I hope you are all well. I’m reaching out to remind you that the Call for Proposals for Cloud Forum 2025 closes on December 20. There are calls for both Cloud and Research proposals. I hope you will consider submitting one or more proposals. We want to hear what cloud is doing for (or to) you!

 

Please share this email with any interested colleagues and encourage them to submit as well. The committee looks forward to reading your proposals.

 

Regards,

Subject: Cloud Forum 2025: Save the Date and Call for Proposals Open

Colleagues,

 

Apologies for any cross-posts. If you see this more than once it just means you are a committed member of the R&E cloud community!

 

Mark your calendars! Draft your proposals! Get your researchers involved! 

 

It’s that time of year again. It is time to mark your calendar and start talking to the team about presentation ideas. The Higher Education Cloud Forum is the premier higher education cloud conversation. The event is organized by higher education, for higher education and we want you to be a part of it.

SAVE THE DATE

The 11th Annual Cloud Forum will take place May 20-22, 2025 on the dynamic urban campus of New York University. Once again a dedicated committee of your peers, including a team from host NYU  is working hard to bring you another great Forum. Mark your calendars.

 

SUBMIT YOUR CLOUD PROPOSALS

The Cloud Forum 2025 Call for Proposals is now officially open and we welcome presentation proposals from across the research and education community. 

 

Are you building out AI-powered tools for the students on Google Cloud? Have you started the march of your VMs from on-prem into AWS? Have you brought the edge in-house by setting up an Azure Stack in your data center? If so, your peers want to hear about it. Share your stories. Share your lessons. Share your failures. Share your successes. At the Cloud Forum we talk about all of it. Having trouble choosing? Submit multiple proposals! We’ll take proposals for lightning talks, presentations, and panels.

 

REACH OUT TO YOUR RESEARCHERS

A longstanding Cloud Forum tradition is to have presentations from researchers using hyperscale technologies to power their work. Do you have faculty at your institution leveraging the cloud for interesting, vital research? Encourage them to submit a proposal!

 

For full details, including eligibility guidelines, visit the Cloud Forum Call for Proposals. The call for both Cloud and Research proposals will close on Friday, December 20, 2024..
