Our Coverage Converge! Network Digest provides comprehensive, insightful coverage of the convergence of networking technologies. Here's how we provide you the Big Picture of this dynamic industry. Our coverage spans all layers of the networking stack for both wireline and wireless infrastructure. Stories are selected and summarized based on the interests of our readers. Content on this site is indexed across the many News categories seen in the left menu.
For more information on how to submit news or how to schedule a briefing with us, please contact us.
The Converge! Network Digest publications include our subscription-based daily and weekly e-mail newsletters, and our Web site.
Our e-mail newsletters deliver executive overviews of the most important developments in broadband networking to our subscribers. Each Daily issue (see an example) includes an average of 12-16 stories. For those who prefer to receive fewer e-mails, we offer a Weekly issue (see an example), which is published each Friday morning and includes all of that week’s stories from the daily newsletters.
Each newsletter includes all of the issue’s news in one document. Readers aren’t required to leave the newsletter and link to the Internet to get complete stories, which many subscribers appreciate when they are traveling and have intermittent Internet access. Free trials of our Newsletters are available to people who are considering subscriptions. We offer individual and corporate site license subscriptions.
Our Web site is available to our newsletter subscribers, as well as our non-subscribers. The Web site offers new daily news stories, complete archives of our past news, comprehensive company directories, conference and industry group listings, and serves as a portal to networking industry resources on the web.
Newsletter subscribers have access to much more news on a more timely basis than those people who are only users of our Web site. Our newsletter subscribers receive complete news coverage in every issue. Only a few of the stories from each issue become available on the Web site immediately after a newsletter is published. The complete set of stories becomes available in our online news archives one to four weeks after they are first made available to our subscribers.

Converge! Network Digest, originally known as ATM News Digest, has been published continuously on every US business day since April 1994.
Our Company Converge! Network Digest is owned and published by Converge! Media Ventures, Inc., an independent, privately owned, profitable business.
We have provided consistent, high quality, informative industry coverage since 1994, when our original publication, Madge ATM News Digest, was founded by Madge Networks as a marketing campaign addressed to the "1,000 top influencers" in the networking business. At the time, Madge Networks was a leading supplier of Token Ring adapter cards to major financial institutions, airlines, government agencies, universities and other large enterprises around the world. ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) was widely seen throughout the networking and telecommunications industries as the ultimate convergence layer for LANs and WANs. To build its brand equity in the next wave of networking technology, Madge Networks set out to create an independent newsletter addressed to the top influencers in the industry.
In 1997, the publication was spun-off from Madge Networks into an independent company under James E. Carroll, the newsletter’s founding editor.
Our publications were renamed to Converge! Network Digest in January 2000 to more accurately reflect our coverage of the entire broadband networking industry.
