Our #TNC24 conference is over. What a week it has been. Catching up with so many friends and colleagues, meeting many new friends and colleagues, discovering new future talents and generating new ideas to pursue. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. This is an awesome community.
GÉANTGÉANT CEO Erik Huizer @Milkshake : "'Rendez-Vous' – is more than just the theme of #TNC24 — it reflects our community spirit. It embodies our collective decision to not only mark a place on the map or a slot in our calendars but to create a space where we can engage deeply, learn from each other, and build connections that last.
It's here that we check in with our community, assess our progress, and set the course for the upcoming year.
Let’s make this “Rendez-vous” a memorable one!"
[#TNC24 Opening Plenary] @renater CEO Boris Dintrans welcomed participants to the first TNC in #France!
In these difficult times we see the strength of the links that unite us as a global network.
We need collective intelligence more than ever and our European consortium #GÉANT, with its #NRENs, is the perfect example of what European excellence can achieve together and Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger!”

Laurent Crouzet, Head of Digital Services and Infrastructure Department, Ministry of Higher Education and Research: “It’s a great pleasure to be here.
I know how important it is to support the network and all the services that make researchers work efficiently - both in France and in Europe.
First by ensuring that @renater , which is a historic NREN in Europe, is even more present within @geant , and second to support GÉANT in the European landscape.”
This morning at #TNC24, we remembered those of us from our community who can no longer be with us.
GÉANT Board chair Gilles Massen took the opportunity to remember our beloved colleague and friend Sarah Jones.
We at GÉANT continue to miss Sarah terribly.
Marina Adomeit @sunet , accepting the award at #TNC24: "It is a tremendous honour to stand here today. I feel incredibly fortunate to have joined this community right after university. It is a giving and driving force that enables us to accomplish great things in support of #research and #education."
#TNC24 has started. Opening keynote by Paul Iske. It’s gonna be a great week.
I was told that the #TNC24 venue was amazing. But now I’m convinced #enroute2tnc
