Low Tide @ ProInfoNet
When the tide goes out, you see what’s actually there.
Low Tide is a Silicon Lobster series that steps inside the organizations quietly shaping Maine’s future through technology, infrastructure, and community impact.
This edition brings us inside ProInfoNet.
Founded in 1995, ProInfoNet has spent nearly three decades strengthening connectivity across Maine and beyond. From modernizing healthcare IT systems to expanding broadband access and advising municipalities on network infrastructure, their work has helped more than 320 organizations save over 200 million dollars in technology investments.
This is the team behind:
• The New England Telehealth Consortium network supporting over 1,400 healthcare sites • Broadband expansion initiatives reaching 4 states, 52 counties, and over 2 million residents • Strategic IT planning for mission driven institutions across New England
This is not a sales presentation. It is not a panel. It is a behind the scenes look at how infrastructure actually gets built.
Agenda:
5:00 - 5:30 PM: Arrival drinks and snacks
5:30 - 6:00PM: Short presentations
6:00 - 7:00 PM: Drinks, snacks, and networking
Expect:
• A brief welcome from Silicon Lobster • A walkthrough of ProInfoNet’s work across broadband and healthcare connectivity • Insight into the policy and legislative efforts that shaped federal healthcare funding • Open conversation about infrastructure, vendor neutrality, and mission driven technology
If you care about broadband access, healthcare connectivity, rural infrastructure, or strengthening communities through technology, this evening is for you.
