The new site – Silverlinings – is led by award-winning digital entrepreneur Steve Saunders.

The site will launch on January 5 at silverliningsinfo.com.
In addition, Silverlinings will offer virtual summits. Topics include: Cloud Data Center Strategies, Multicloud Interoperability, and Cloud Management and Security.
The Silverlinings team will be part of the Questex Technology group led by Market Leader Kevin Gray. Questex has attracted top talent with critical skill sets to deliver content that reflects this dynamic new market, in engaging multimedia formats preferred by users of cloud infrastructure technology.
