Joachim Mnich, Director for Research and Computing and her boss [4], holds the position also since January 2021 [1]. Mike Lamont, Director for Accelerators and Technology, also got the job at the same time [2]. Finally Fabiola Gianotti, Director-General, in 2019 extended her tenure for a second term “to start on 1st January 2021” [3].
So in 2019 the initiative to remove Microsoft began. With renewal and promotions taking in to effect it stopped. Interesting. Feeling a strong Microsoft US vs Munich DE vibe. With a twitch of IT.

- wuming2 2y ago“newly created CERN Venture Connect programme (CVC), launched in 2023 […] In establishing CVC, CERN’s Entrepreneurship team entered discussions with Microsoft, with the aim to better leverage the Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub“ [1]. Under the purview of Christopher Hartley, Director of Industry, Procurement & Knowledge Transfer (IPT) [2], Microsoft is gaining more footholds at CERN. Won’t be too far fetched to consider Mr Hartley and Ms Porcari as working together to achieve some sort of common good. 1. https://home.cern/news/news/knowledge-sharing/journey-cern-entrepreneurship https://home.cern/news/news/knowledge-sharing/journey-cern-e... 2. https://german-dac.web.cern.ch/sites/default/files/2022.01%20CERN%20Orgchart.pdf https://german-dac.web.cern.ch/sites/default/files/2022.01%2...
