Hi all,
For those of you who are going to be at TNC22 in Trieste, on behalf of the Leadership Team I’m looking forward to seeing you at our GNA-G meeting!
This meeting will be different in structure to the Community VCs that we’ve been running over the last few years. It will be more of an open discussion of the strategy and aims of GNA-G, and how best to ensure that we’re succeeding in achieving these.
A quick survey:
So that we get the most value out of our time together, we’d like to hear from the GNA-G community.
Please take ten minutes to fill in this simple survey: https://forms.gle/B67Cu9SL8TCaZGsE7
(We’re keen to receive everyone’s input, whether you’re able to attend the meeting or not!)
Reminder of the meeting details
It’s taking place on Monday 13 June, 9am-1pm CEST.
Details are on the TNC website: https://tnc22.geant.org/programme/
And also on the GNA-G events page: https://www.gna-g.net/attend-a-meeting/gna-g-community-meeting-at-tnc22/
Remember – you’ll need to register for the Monday side-meeting day and pay EUR30 (charged by the organisers to cover catering, venue cost, etc). Please follow the instructions on the TNC22 website.
Zoom details
For those who can’t attend in person, we will have Zoom capabilities in the room to run the meeting as a hybrid.

Hi all,
Just to keep you informed, we’re having some issues with the GNA-G website https://www.gna-g.net/ which might result it in being unreachable for some of you.
Apologies - the team’s working on it, and I’ll provide an update once we have a resolution.
Regards,
David

Hi all,
Our friend, colleague and collaborator Erik-Jan Bos has recently made the decision to resign from NORDUnet, to seek new adventures. His departure is set for 1 June.
Erik-Jan has been a driving force in the world of R&E networking for over thirty years. He has played a key role in guiding and driving the success of GNA-G and its predecessors, GLIF and GNA. His departure will leave a huge gap in our sector in general, and in GNA-G in particular. It’s also of course an exciting time for Erik-Jan, and we wish him the greatest success in whatever his next adventure brings.
With this, he’ll be stepping down from the GNA-G Leadership Team.
Erik-Jan is also currently the Chair of the LT. My LT colleagues Harvey, Ivana, Buseung and Marco have done me the honour of asking me to take on this role, which I have accepted. Erik-Jan is a hard act to follow however!
(We’re hoping that he’ll return to the sector elsewhere in a new role, which would allow him to rejoin us. On the chance that this happens, we will hold off before mobilising the NomCom to solicit you all for a new member of the LT.)
Please join the LT and I in a heartfelt vote of thanks to Erik-Jan, and wish him all the best in whatever the future brings him.
Regards,
David
