Q3 - 2023 Newsletter

A message from our Director of Corporate Relations

As we move toward the end of 2023, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the first 3 quarters of the year, update you on some of the many exciting developments within our ISACA South Florida Chapter, and share our vision for the future.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for our active and vibrant SFL community. Our members and partners are truly amazing! Over the past year we have collaborated with many organizations. We have supported each other, collaborated in our activities to maximize our impact, and we have been able to connect you with your peers, fostering meaningful connections and making a difference in our community.

As we move forward, please know that your input and ideas are invaluable to our continued success. We encourage you to share your thoughts, suggestions, and feedback, as your insights play a vital role in shaping our ISACA SFL strategy. None of this would have been possible without each and every one of you and our dedicated community partners, corporate sponsors, and academic supporters.

In closing, I want to reiterate my appreciation for your membership and partnership with us. We are so thrilled to serve the South Florida community for our 45^th year, and to celebrate our milestone year with meaningful partnerships that have positively impact our organizations and our South Florida community!

Thank you for being an integral part of our ISACA SFL Community, and I look forward to the exciting journey ahead.
