How Did Nexus Support Silicon Slopes Tech Summit 2020?

As both a sponsor and the team responsible for designing and implementing a robust infrastructure, Nexus helped the venue to design a high-density Wi-Fi network capable of supporting 30,000 attendees and the many devices they would bring with them over the course of the two-day event.

Furthermore, for specific vendors at the event, Nexus also deployed dedicated connections in order to keep them secure from the other attendees at the summit. These networks were entirely firewalled off from others at the summit, keeping their data reliably secure.

“In some situations, we had to do independent, dedicated hardlines to different sponsors and vendors, to make sure their connectivity was segregated and secure,” said Earl.
