    Posted 24 days ago

    As I mentioned to our SIG Moderators and Champions last Wednesday, we will be called upon to continue to provide at least one article per quarter for Strategic Finance magazine beginning in 2025, and probably 1-3 technology webinars per year.  In addition, we are contemplating launching a Podcast so we would like ideas for topics. The table below is just a sample - DO NOT try to post to it.  PLEASE DO:

    • Reply to this poist with suggested topics for our Technology SIG to focus on
    • Indicate whether it is a good topic for an article, webinar, Podcast or anll of the above
    • Indicate when you think would be a relevant timing if you think it is time-sensitive
    • Indicate a name to author or present if either (a) you are willing to sign up to do it, or (b) you know someone who would like to do it
