Save the Children’s chief information officer (CIO) Edward Granger-Happ for
spring term as an executive fellow and as the CIO-in-Residence. Granger-Happ

Granger-Happ is also the chairman of the board and a founder of NetHope, a
collaborative group of information technology professionals dedicated to
delivering information and communications technology solutions for emergency
relief, human development, and conservation programs in more than 150
countries. In 2007, the editors of eWEEK, CIO Insight, and
Baseline selected Granger-Happ as one of the Top 100 Most Influential
People in IT and one of the Top 100 CIOs.
“One way we learn about strategies and innovations for technology and the
emerging world is to listen to and interact with organizations outside our
industries and sectors,” says Granger-Happ. “The nonprofit world has some
important things to share with the corporate and academic communities, and
these in turn have important things to say to the nonprofit community.”
“We are delighted to have Ed join us in the center. His creativity and
insight will benefit students and faculty alike,” says Professor Eric Johnson,
director of the Center for Digital Strategies. “Executive fellows provide a
unique perspective to our research, and we are grateful that Save the Children
is willing to share Ed with the next generation of humanitarians.”
