Merit Network is pleased to present a one-day summit for networking professionals on Thursday, August 4, 2011, at the Eagle Crest Conference Center in Ypsilanti, Michigan.

With all the ink and attention currently devoted to clouds, virtualization and data centers, it's easy to lose the fact that networking is the key to every organization's infrastructure and just about every modern service offering. This summertime summit is an opportunity for networkers of all levels to concentrate on the current state of networking technologies, find out what other organizations are doing within their infrastructures, and get together on a beautiful summer day.
