In a fast-moving infrastructure landscape, IT and network leaders must stay ahead to stay competitive. Converge Digest and AvidThink partnered to build NextGenInfra — a combined research and video package that spotlights the technologies powering the AI era, and puts your experts in front of the people making buying decisions.
Sponsorship positions you as an innovator and a credible vendor. Each report pairs a succinct, analyst-authored research brief with a set of executive video interviews — yours among them.
Go on the record with a professionally produced interview that shows the market you understand where the technology is heading — not just what you sell.
Explain how your solution addresses real customer needs in a format executives and architects actually watch and share.
Appear alongside other recognized thought leaders — carriers, enterprises, and vendors — inside independent, analyst-authored research.
Align your brand with cutting-edge topics before they hit the mainstream, and stay in front of buyers for 6–12 months per report cycle.
We work with you to produce the video — remotely or on-site in the SF Bay Area — with editing and assistance provided. Every participant and sponsor reviews and approves before anything is published on nextgeninfra.io and our YouTube channel.
