Nomad Futurist Foundation welcomes Flexential as a sponsor

The 501(c)(3) non-profit Nomad Futurist Foundation announced on Jan. 3 that Flexential, a provider of secure and scalable data center solutions, has joined the foundation through a Nexus level sponsorship.

The aim of the Nomad Futurist Foundation and sponsors like Flexential is to demystify digital infrastructure and related technologies, paving the way for younger generations to understand the digital world and opening up opportunities for growth and future career paths.

The Nomad Futurist Foundation sponsorships provide the necessary means to develop and provide educational programming and outreach initiatives.
