The Nomad Futurist Foundation was proud to have a powerful and purposeful presence at DCD>Connect | New York, held March 24–25, 2025, at the Marriott Marquis in the heart of Times Square. This year’s event was more than a showcase of digital infrastructure innovation — it marked a pivotal moment for the next generation of talent in our industry.

With the support and collaboration of the Datacenter Dynamics team, we took a major step forward in bringing our mission to life: inspiring and empowering young minds to explore careers in digital infrastructure.

For the second year in a row, students walked the show floor alongside industry giants, a clear signal that the sector is embracing the value of early exposure, mentorship, and opportunity. It’s a milestone we’ve long championed — and one that’s now becoming reality.

Our Co-Founder Phillip Koblence took the stage for two dynamic panel discussions, diving into key conversations about the evolving future of our space. Meanwhile, the Nomad Futurist booth became a lively focal point throughout the event — powered by a passionate team of Advisors, Ambassadors, Advocates, and Foundation leadership.

As attendees stopped by to learn more, a common question emerged: “What is Nomad Futurist?” That curiosity quickly turned into connection, as professionals from across the ecosystem joined us in advancing our mission.
