This expertise will now be showcased in the Amplifier, a multi-contributor news blog pairing current issues with commentary from Tech experts. It will provide a forum to spotlight, “What does Georgia Tech think?”

The primary goals of this initiative are to:

• Better position Tech as a research/thought leader.
• Provide a unique forum to position Institute expertise in social media spheres.
• Allow all audiences to participate in a dialogue associated with Institute research.
• Help media more easily connect experts with timely news stories.
• Create a flow of high-value, time-critical content.

A companion Twitter feed strategically targeting journalists has also been created to highlight new posts and other Georgia Tech news. View the blog here.
