[This is a final reminder about a message from the SIM Communications team posted originally on July 22]
Hi there SIMians,
Are you ready for AOM in Chicago? We had posted a message about SIM Events a couple weeks ago, and this is one more reminder for you to mark your calendars. Check out the table of events and associated links below. We're excited to welcome you in Chicago and hope to see you at these events!
The joint SBE-SIM keynote address on Saturday, August 10, will be an opportunity to hear from Jeff McMahan on a topic that's relevant to many SIMians, and the title of the address says it best: "Killing for Profit". The address is followed by a reception where you have the opportunity to engage in conversation with your colleagues about this topic, or just (re-)connect.
Also on Saturday, there is a new type of networking opportunity that we hope will be fun (and developmental) for you: Speed Networking with the SIM Division.
The SIM Business Meeting on Monday, August 12, will offer you a chance to hear from SIM leadership and other SIM representatives about the current state of the division and its future. Of course, the business meeting is followed by the event that we are all waiting for: the SIM Social. Please bring a friend or two; the more the merrier!
Also on Monday, August 12, we encourage you to attend the SIM Awards events, where you will hear about the excellent work that SIMians are working on right now. Lastly, take a look at our SIM consortia and the Research Development PDW. These events are excellent opportunities for professional development, led by leading scholars in our field.
Again, we can't wait to see you all in Chicago!
