In the fall of 2007, the Brandeis International Business School and IBM established a strategic relationship to help students develop the dynamic
combination of business and information technology skills required in today's global job market. Brandeis joined the IBM Academic Initiative to ensure
that its curriculum stays current with the demands of the rapidly changing marketplace.

Under Mr. Litow’s leadership, IBM launched Reinventing Education, a program serving over 80,000 teachers and 8 million children worldwide.

Before joining IBM, Mr. Litow served as the deputy chancellor of schools for New York City, the nation’s largest school system. He previously founded and ran Interface, a nonprofit think tank, and served as an aide to both the mayor and governor of New York.
