What does this mean to you?
There will be no impact to Uptime Institute clients, prospects, partners or graduates with the sale of the 451 Research division as the two 451 Group organizations have always remained two independent operating divisions with the 451 Group. Uptime Institute clients and prospects will continue to enjoy all existing engagement processes, award certifications, unique “peer-to-peer” member networks and business relationships and will further benefit as additional Uptime Institute resources are deployed to bring more expertise to more markets around the world. Partners will continue to conduct business as they do today, with the same teams they work with already. Graduates will continue to be recognized for their achievements and expertise.
Going forward, we will grow resources across all disciplines globally and will continue to provide relevant, experience-based thought leadership and intelligence for the digital infrastructure industry.
