James “Jimi” Page, At-Large Director
James “Jimi” Page founded Page Global Technologies™ (d/b/a Page After Page Business Systems Inc.) in 1991 with two employees, a handful of copiers, and a conviction that better workflow could level the playing field for any organization. Drawing on early experience at IBM and a relentless knack for spotting market gaps, he transformed the Downtown-DC start-up into an agile tech integrator long before “digital transformation” became a buzzword. Today Page Global’s headquarters anchors a network of satellite offices nationwide, and its growth arc—from copiers and fax machines to AI-ready print fleets—has become case-study material at Howard University’s School of Business, where Jimi recently earned his MBA.
Under his leadership the firm has evolved into a Top-Secret-cleared, award-winning provider of IT-centric business-machine solutions: secure cloud print, zero-trust cybersecurity, data-warehouse integrations, and 24/7 managed services. Strategic alliances with blue-chip manufacturers give Page Global coast-to-coast reach, while in-house engineers design turnkey hardware-and-software packages that meet ISO, NIST, and DoD compliance standards. After acquiring one of the region’s oldest equipment dealers, the company surpassed $500 million in lifetime revenue, all while holding to its founding mantra—“better, faster, more economical”—for customers ranging from two-person nonprofits to Fortune-500 divisions.
Jimi’s commitment to “lift as you climb” is equally expansive. He sits on the boards of the DC and Arlington Chambers of Commerce, mentors drone-racing teams on Saturdays, and powers youth hackathons through STEM<span style="color:#0057FF;">4</span><span style="color:#e30613;">!</span><span style="color:#0057FF;">US</span> by donating secure print-to-cloud infrastructure and hands-on coaching. A recipient of the President’s Call to Service Award for community impact, he is currently spearheading a “Jail-to-Payroll” tech-skills pipeline that pairs returning citizens with Page Global internships. When not engineering workflow solutions or championing workforce equity, Jimi can be found restoring vintage guitars and hiking the Potomac Heritage Trail with his wife, Lauren, and their two teenage daughters.
