The 2013 Digital Ball is in the history books. Everyone had a great time and a lot of money was raised for TechBridge. Congratulations to James Franklin, Carrie Bates Hastings and the entire team at TechBridge along with a huge team of volunteers. This was a special night and you made it so.

Booth 61 had the privilege of broadcasting live during the opening reception. We interviewed leading technologists who have been at every Digital Ball and those who were attending for the very first time.

What an honor it was to be joined by Carrie Wheeler, CIO of Cbeyond in Booth 61. Carrie is someone I have enjoyed getting to know over the past number of years. Carrie is real people and she has a warm and generous spirit. Carrie works for one of the most giving companies in Atlanta, Cbeyond. I had the privilege of meeting the founder, Jim Geiger and most of his senior staff in 2005 or 2006. As a growing entrepreneurial company, time and money are not always available for not for profit organizations or donations of employee time. Cbeyond does not agree with that philosophy and our community is so much better as a result. You will love hearing Carrie’s passion for service.
