Pensando CTO Vipin Jain accepted into Forbes Technology Council

MILPITAS, Calif., Feb. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Pensando Systems, the company pioneering the new edge services model of enterprise and cloud computing, today announced that co-founder and chief technology officer (CTO) Vipin Jain has been accepted into Forbes Technology Council, an invitation-only community for world-class CIOs, CTOs, and technology executives.

Vipin was vetted and selected by a review committee based on the depth and diversity of his experience. Criteria for acceptance include a track record of successfully impacting business growth metrics, as well as personal and professional achievements and honors.

"We are honored to welcome Vipin into the community," said Scott Gerber, founder of Forbes Councils, the collective that includes Forbes Technology Council. "Our mission with Forbes Councils is to bring together proven leaders from every industry, creating a curated, social capital-driven network that helps every member grow professionally and make an even greater impact on the business world."

As an accepted member of the Council, Vipin has access to a variety of exclusive opportunities designed to help him reach peak professional influence. He will connect and collaborate with other respected local leaders in a private forum. Vipin will also be invited to work with a professional editorial team to share his expert insights in original business articles on Forbes.com, and to contribute to published Q&A panels alongside other experts.

Finally, Vipin will benefit from exclusive access to vetted business service partners, membership-branded marketing collateral, and the high-touch support of the Forbes Councils member concierge team.

"5G, IoT, AI, and other emerging technologies — and the massive amount of data they generate — are radically transforming entire industries and dramatically changing the way businesses operate. While exciting, we must have thoughtful conversations about the future of these technologies: the possibilities, challenges, and pitfalls that businesses must consider as well as the broader impact they will have across society," said Vipin Jain, chief technology officer and co-founder of Pensando Systems. "15 years at Cisco and launching a startup that sits at the intersection of networking, cloud computing, and edge computing have offered a unique perspective and I look forward to discussing these topics and more with Forbes readers."
