[Kappelman, Leon]

SIM's 38th anniversary IT Trends Study & Chapter Challenge Contest are underway!

SIM members check your email or click http://www.simnet.org/IT-Trends.

The SIM IT Trends Study has been a collaboration of academics and practitioners since its inception in 1980.  SIM was a co-founder of MIS Quarterly and MIS Quarterly Executive.  The complete archive of IT Trends Study reports, beginning with a 1982 MISQ article, is freely available at http://www.simnet.org/members/group_content_view.asp?group=140286&id=436627.

All SIM members can meaningfully participate in the study, including academics members.  As a thank you for making time to complete the questionnaire, we will send you a personalized and confidential benchmark report comparing your responses to those of other SIM members.  Your participation also helps your chapter claim bragging rights and a share of $24,000 in prize money in the IT Trends Chapter Challenge Contest to fund programs, STEM, and other philanthropic endeavors.  Will your chapter win the Chapter Challenge Contest?
