It’s not uncommon for us to connect our board members to our clients directly, and Teena will be a huge asset they can draw on when making crucial decisions about their technology environments.

“SADA is a dynamic, growing company that has what every enterprise IT department needs: a trusted partner that has its finger on the pulse of the technology industry,” said Piccione. “By aligning with Google Cloud, SADA has partnered with, in my opinion, the world’s leading provider of cloud infrastructure, applications and related technologies. Over the past few years, SADA has repeatedly demonstrated that no one in the world knows Google Cloud Platform as well as it does. SADA’s knowledge of GCP, its culture of diversity and inclusion, and its passion for client success comes through in everything it does. I am proud to be associated with SADA and excited to be part of the team!”
