About the SNIA

Incorporated in December 1997, the SNIA is a registered 501(c)6 non-profit trade association. SNIA is committed to leading the storage industry worldwide in developing and promoting standards, technologies, and educational services to empower organizations in the management of information community.

The SNIA works toward this goal by forming and sponsoring technical work groups, producing (with our strategic partner Computerworld) the Storage Networking World Conference series, building and maintaining a vendor neutral Technology Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado and promoting activities that expand the breadth and quality of the storage networking market.

The SNIA's ability to accomplish its goals is directly attributed to the dedication and hard work of hundreds of volunteers from our member companies.

The SNIA is setting the pace for our industry
