GGF and EGA complete merger, announce Open Grid Forum
The Enterprise Grid Alliance (EGA) and the Global Grid Forum (GGF) today announced the completion of their merger, forming the Open Grid Forum (OGF).
I first mentioned this merger in the Grid Meter back in February.
The OGF will be led by former GGF Chairman Mark Linesch, who will serve as president and chief executive officer.
I'm pleased to see that Mark will be the man at the helm for two reasons ... Mark is a good leader, and he surrounds himself with good people.
In fact, I'm sure that Steve Crumb, the GGF Executive Director and Mark's right hand man, had a hand in getting this deal pulled off. I hope to see Steve in his rightful place as first officer on the OGF ship.
