New England Chapter HIMSS (NE HIMSS)
Corporate Chapter Sponsorship Program (2006-2007)

The New England Chapter of the Healthcare Information & Management Systems Society (NE HIMSS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting a better understanding of healthcare information and management systems worldwide.

In 2005 the New England Chapter launched its first Corporate Sponsorship Program. We were overwhelmed with the support by the vendor community. It was through that support that we were able to celebrate our 20th anniversary and annual awards at a gala affair at no costs to our members, as well provide educational programs at reduced rates.

2006 brings a new challenge for our chapter. We have designated this year as “The Year of The Member”. Our goal is to continue focusing on the membership and targeting all programs towards fostering professional growth, developing relationships through networking opportunities, and the sharing of knowledge between members.

By becoming a Corporate Chapter Sponsor you can directly impact the experience of our membership.

Below is an explanation of the program and options for sponsorship. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor please contact Brendan Fowkes at [email protected]. I welcome the opportunity to discuss with you the benefits of becoming a New England HIMSS Corporate Chapter Sponsor.

Best Regards,
