Marty Puranik

Marty Puranik is the founder, president and CEO of Atlantic.Net, a leading cloud hosting solutions provider. In 1994 Marty and two classmates founded Atlantic.Net from their dorm rooms at the University of Florida. Operating under the name ICC Computers, they quickly developed a reputation for quality and service and in 1995 launched one of the first commercial Internet services in North Florida. Under Marty’s leadership Atlantic.Net became one of Florida’s largest privately-owned ISPs, providing Internet access in cities and small towns throughout Florida and the southeastern United States. As legislation began making it more difficult for smaller ISPs to exist, Marty began redirecting the company.
