Headquartered in Albany, N.Y., an area dubbed Tech Valley in the late ’90s to promote its status as a competitor in the high-tech industry, InfoEd Global is at the precipice of innovation in research and development. The company’s founder, Edward Johnson Sr., developed the world’s first search engine dedicated solely to sourcing research funding opportunities after years of working in research administration. While the tried-and-true methods of hitting the phones, writing letters and networking within the industry were effective in their own right, Mr. Johnson had the foresight to use technology to save time and money while making resources more readily available. Since 2011, Kimberly Johnson has been at the helm of the company, bringing more than 30 years of professional experience to her executive role.
