Introducing Iceotope's North American Advisory Board

We are honored to introduce the Iceotope North American Advisory Board, a group of recognized industry leaders with decades of real-world experience that will provide us with strategic guidance to ensure our initiatives are aligned with real-world needs. 

The rapid rise of AI is not only transforming industries; it’s reshaping how we build and sustain digital infrastructure. To meet future demands, we must embrace new technologies. But before emerging solutions can scale, they must first earn credibility, trust, and adoption in complex environments. 

That’s where the Advisory Board comes in. Our advisors provide candid, outside-in feedback that helps us test our assumptions. Their expertise gives us greater visibility into real-world use cases, buying processes, and pain points across different verticals.
