What a turnout for our AI seminar and 75^th Anniversary!  I hope everyone had as much fun and learned as much as I did.  Thank you to our panelists, volunteers, and to our special guests who came in from other parts of the country to make the event a success!

Our first Emerging Professionals Networking lunch was a resounding success, and we’re looking forward to many more fun and educational sessions with our future leaders.  We are also excited that two of our Chapter members were recognized in IA magazine as Emerging Leaders.  Houston, as it has for the past 75 years, continues to be a leader in the profession!

We have many more great events coming up through year-end, including auditing digital transformations, enhancing critical thinking skills, our first ESG roundtable, and of course, ethics so that we all meet our certification requirements. Please continue to watch for upcoming announcements through our normal channels – emails, newsletters, website, and social media. Thank you to all our members for your continuing support and participation!
