October Newsletter
I want to say thank you to all of you who attended KINBERCON as a presenter, sponsor, or attendee - you made KINBERCON 2025 one of the best events yet. We heard great feedback live at the conference, and we'll be sending out a survey later this week to capture everyone's input - please help us by completing it!
Last week's event had timely content, presented by dynamic colleagues, to rooms full of engaged and excited attendees. Our energetic keynote speaker, Dr. Nicol Turner Lee, was a delight, and our sponsors and exhibitors shared innovative tools and insights with our crowd. On behalf of everyone at KINBER and Keystone REN we hope that everyone had a great conference experience and we look forward to continuing our work together.

KINBERCON 2025
Last week, KINBER & Keystone REN gathered in Historic Downtown Lancaster, PA for KINBERCON 2025. The conference provided a fantastic opportunity for our sponsors, colleagues, and thought leaders in Pennsylvania to come together to share their learnings and offerings with more than 150 attendees. We are thrilled to offer this event as a convening of great people doing exciting, important work across tech and AI, cyberinfrastructure, cybersecurity and digital access and opportunity in the Commonwealth. Keep an eye on our social media for more photos from the event!
