In a unique move among Maryland locales, the City of Westminster is building out its own municipal fiber broadband network. But the opportunity for tech gains doesn’t stop with the infrastructure itself, as a nonprofit was formed to create connections around the tech feature.

Called Mid-Atlantic Gigabit Innovation Collaboratory, Inc. (MAGIC), the nonprofit’s board is currently seeking an executive director. This search comes following the announcement that Amy Rupp, who joined in 2017 and has led growth at the organization from healthcare pilots in a pair of homes to an international reach for its Capture the Flag competitions, is resigning, effective Sept. 14.

Rupp and her husband are set to travel around the country as full-time RVers.

“Tech entrepreneurs question the status quo,” Rupp said in a statement. “They find better ways to solve problems, and they take calculated risks, knowing that the process, even if they fail, will enrich their lives. The passionate people that are a part of the MAGIC tech ecosystem were the catalyst for making our ‘one day’ dreams a reality. After over two years of working alongside tech entrepreneurs, I couldn’t help but take action on my own passions.”

Now MAGIC is seeking a leader to “attract, nurture, and retain tech businesses to the local community as part of collaborative efforts to enhance economic development in Westminster and Carroll County.”

MAGIC Board of Directors seeks a new Executive Director to oversee all operations, functions and activities, working in partnership with the board to position the organization for long-term success. For more info and to see how to apply: https://t.co/iNjgA4ZUN6
