Vince LaForgia (Founder and CEO)
Vince started ERC in August 2000. Prior to that, Vincent worked as a Reviewer for two years with the SLD of USAC. In that capacity, Vince acquired comprehensive subject matter expertise on matters related to E-Rate compliance and process management. Over time, Vince has acquired additional expertise in telecommunications and Internet technologies and the costs of procurement and implementation, as well as related practical issues that often arise when evaluating and selecting service providers.
Vince has also worked as an Account Executive implementing cutting edge hardware technologies for some of largest multinational companies in the world, including Sun Microsystems and Hewlett-Packard. This experience affords him a practical understanding of both the various technologies used by districts, as well as the sales strategies and practices of equipment vendors. Consequently, Vince provides day-to-day client relationship and vendor management services to ensure clients’ needs and concerns are addressed in a timely fashion.
