Milledgeville Municipal WiMax Network

Our Story

stacks_image_D6FF2FB1-042C-4684-AC42-3B46B59328F2
Our name, “The Digital Innovation Group”, was selected after much thought. The use of the term "Group" carries the significance. In the beginning, many thought we should be a center; however, a center is a location that people utilize. Our Group represents an effort to bring together resources for collaboration, matching challenges with solutions. By erasing the lines between public and private K-12 and higher education, academic and corporate/community, a synergy is being developed.


Visit the DI Group menu item above to read about our
Mission Statement. From there, you can meet the Facilitation Team. Also, to establish a sound means of communications, a network of USG Institution Representatives has been developed. Similar affiliate groups will be created for other segments of the Group. Finally, you will find an assemblage of vendors, corporations and agencies recognized as Associates. The focus for these supporters, chosen after a review of support potential, is active involvement in sustaining our mission statement. The Digital Innovation Group is a dynamic entity as it begins this exciting journey. Check back to see who has joined this excitement.
