ICSI has announced the appointment of six members to its board of trustees, growing the diverse group of academic and corporate leaders to 16 members. The expanded board held its annual meeting on Friday, when the new trustees officially assumed their duties.

“Our new trustees further enrich an already strong board with deep experience in computer science research, both in academic and industrial settings,” said Roberto Pieraccini, director and president of ICSI. “This is a tremendous team and I look forward to benefiting from their knowledge and insight.”

“We have a stellar, highly diverse international board that comprises some of the best minds from top universities, leading companies, and private equity firms. We look to take full advantage of this expertise and leadership as we continually raise the bar at ICSI,” said Prabhakar Raghavan of Google and the chairperson of ICSI’s board.
