2024 SID-US Annual Membership Meeting

SID-United States welcomes its members to join us for our Annual Membership Meeting on January 31 from 3:00 - 6:30 PM ET. Our Annual Membership Meeting provides an opportunity for our members to connect with our management and board, as well as each other, and to hear from high-level speakers on timely topics of importance to the international development community. For this year’s Annual Membership Meeting, we will bring together Chief Information Officers from DFC, State Department, and USAID to discuss IT modernization, artificial intelligence (AI), and how technology can be used in the pursuit of diplomatic and development goals.  

We will also cover membership-related topics and provide an opportunity for attendees to ask questions of our staff and Board. We will close out the meeting with a reception and open networking. Thank you to our Reception Sponsors, Creative Associates International and Mathematica!
