NexusEdge today announced that it has received the 2023 Google Cloud Customer of the Year Award in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
NexusEdge was recognized for their achievements in the Google Cloud ecosystem, helping customers in education teach students the next generation of cloud software to build the necessary skills required for the new workforce.
The Google Cloud Customer Awards are an opportunity to recognize the most innovative, technically advanced, and transformative cloud deployments across industries, from around the globe, built on our platform,” said Brian Hall, VP of Product and Industry Marketing at Google Cloud. “I want to congratulate NexusEdge on achieving this award and serving as an innovator for the industry.”
Since 2019, NexusEdge and Google Cloud have partnered to integrate cloud training into classroom instruction at community colleges and high schools throughout the country. In 2021, NexusEdge migrated its infrastructure to Google Cloud from a legacy provider and moved all productivity tools to Google Workspace. These migrations resulted in increased convenience for productivity tools, employee onboarding and streamlined compliance needs in deployments to universities globally to meet the highest security and data storage expectations.
Google Cloud has led the way for education innovation, and the Google Customer Award for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion recognizes the shared values of purpose-driven social impact. Google Cloud has helped NexusEdge lead innovation in education to integrate employer training into classrooms at scale. The synergies between Google divisions allows creativity and collaboration for greater student and employer success not possible at other companies. As a result, community college students have received internships at JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, Citi, Ernst & Young, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Snapchat, and more.
