June 12, 2023

A Conversation with Robert Ferdan CGCIO, IT Director, Alameda County Mosquito District.


Few realize that there are over 700 mosquito abatement districts (MADs) across the US – most with a critical IT component. These quasi-governmental organizations play a vital role in controlling the world’s most deadly disease-carrying insect. The Alameda County (CA) Mosquito Abatement District long ago secured the unique address www.mosquitoes.org which simply adds to the cleverness of this fascinating world we take for granted. Listen as IT Director Robert Ferdan talks about his stellar IT career and more about tech and MADs. Robert is a true IT pro with vision, tenacity, and just the right amount of curiosity to make a tremendous difference in his district.
