We Speak the Same Language as You

We Understand Research and Education

PIER Group understands the world of research and education. We’ve worked with some of the biggest universities in the U.S. as well as public and private research institutions.

We work with a majority of the Big Ten and SEC members, as well as many other educational institutions across the US every day. We’ve also been involved in the design and expansion of other national research networking entities such as GENI, ESnet, The Quilt, and Internet2. Another area of expertise is working with the regional education networks that tie into these national networks such as I-Light, ARE-ON, BTAA OmniPop, FRGP, Great Plains Network, KyRON, MREN, WiscNet, etc.

For each of our clients, we consider their individual needs as well as how they fit into a more holistic picture of R&E, and the advantages they might be able to secure from being part of a larger community. We have years of experience with open infrastructure, at-scale networking and distributed systems specifically designed for university and research clients.
