Introducing the new look In the Field blog

The In the Field blog is a global collaboration between national research and education network (NREN) Marketing Communications and Public Relations teams, led by AARNet (Australia’s NREN), to provide a resource that showcases how NREN technologies are used, and the value and impact of NRENs globally.

AARNet Network & Connectivity Data & Collaboration Cyber Security News

The blog launched in 2015 and we recently took feedback on board to evolve the site to meet broader needs of the global NREN community. This collegiate community encompasses NRENs at various stages of development, from emerging to well-established, in more than 120 countries across six continents.
