Mr. Guzman has been working on an outsourced IT business model for small businesses since 1994. A passion that started at Intel Corporation, which was at the time was researching a remote administration capability that would eventually support the IT needs of the small business market. Intel ultimately decided to pass on the opportunity Ed, however, believed otherwise, and has been working on that model ever since. With over 20 years of experience within the high-tech industry including 12 years management experience in both Marketing & Engineering environments, founding two outsourced IT companies, Mr. Guzman’s career has featured the creation of teams, products and services that were both innovative and industry firsts. He has focused upon solutions for small to medium sized businesses that include HP mini-computers, HP servers, data management solutions and small office/home office network management. His love of technology aside, Mr. Guzman’s family of four comes first - as does the family of his employees. And it’s that culture that's unique to Cogent IT and the element of Cogent that Ed holds the most pride.
