LINC and ConnecTech have officially merged!

 We are excited about the LINC-ConnecTech merger and excited for the year to come!  We had two transitional planning meetings this month (read this full article for more information).

We plan to keep mixers at their normal time- the last Thursday of every other month (the even numbered months). We look forward to seeing you at the next mixer on February 25th at 5:30 - 8:00 pm at the Radisson Capital City Grille.

REMINDER- TONIGHT! You're invited! Calling all potential leaders interested in joining the new board of the LINC + ConnecTech merged group

Did you hear? After much discussion in 2009, LINC and Connectech have decided to combine forces and create a new and improved IT group to better serve the Greater Lansing technology industry.

We will be building this group based on the needs of the IT population, and we are looking for leaders. If you are interested in learning more about the new board and committee roles, would like to serve in a leadership position, or would like to sit on a committee, we invite you to join us for a Leadership Meeting on Tuesday, Jan 19.
