History

"Are you a Mason?"

With this simple question, iMasons was announced to the world and a passionate collaboration was born.

Founded by Dean Nelson in April 2016, Infrastructure Masons (iMasons) was established to provide infrastructure executives and technical professionals an independent forum to connect, grow, and give back.

Dean is a 30+ year technology executive who has driven $10B in infrastructure projects across three contents for Sun Microsystems, Ebay, PayPal and Uber, He is also passionate about uniting the digital infrastructure community to aggregate and amplify their work.

iMasons has launched numerous initiatives to advance its mission across four pillars: Education, Inclusion, Innovation, and Sustainability.

To date, iMasons has already raised USD 1+ million in scholarships, launched Member Resource Groups including iM WomenArmed ForcesLatinX, and Millennial-Gen Z, and opened regional and local Chapters across four continents. 

In 2022, iMasons spearheaded the Climate Accord, uniting over 200 companies on carbon reduction in digital infrastructure.

An Infrastructure Mason is a person entrusted with building or managing the physical and logical structures of the digital age."
