I would like to formally invite all of you to join us at this year's IIDA Annual Meeting. We are hosted this year by Steelcase, who is celebrating their 100 year anniversary here in Michigan, not to mention Globally! Our meeting will be held in the newly constructed and recently published Steelcase WorkCafe, designed by Shimoda Design Group in Los Angles, California and engineered by local firm, Progressive AE. The WorkCafe is a perfect example of the trend toward accommodating the new mobile employee. It blends team work with what we need most, energy, ie. nourishment, literally! But the WorkCafe is not loud. It providing opportunity for areas of quiet concentration and individual space for private conversation or group collaboration and team conferencing. The possibilities are endless and we thought that you all should see it first hand!

Please join us on May 23rd for an evening of networking, education and nourishment. We will begin with networking over drinks & hors d'oeuvres at 5pm, followed by our business meeting at 6pm. We have a great CEU planned for you all on 'Gen Y in the Workplace Globally - US, China & India'. The CEU will begin at 6:30pm followed by dinner, WorkCafe style! Each course will introduce you to a fresh face, a new conversation and hopefully a different opportunity to network and build your business. Interested? Tickets are now available on our website or by emailing us at: info@michiganiida.org. Please register and buy your tickets ahead of time.

Do you live on the Eastside of the state and want to find a carpool? We would love to help get you here. Please contact us at: info@michiganiida.org and we'll try to pair you up with others that will be driving over from the Eastside of the state.

Are you interested in sponsoring and advertising at this event? Opportunities for sponsorship are still available. Please contact Karen Stauffer at: karen.stauffer@michiganiida.org.

Thank you for your continued support of the Michigan IIDA Chapter. We greatly appreciate our members and want to honor you all with this this opportunity to engage with other like-minded professionals over drinks, dinner, education and good conversation.

Please join us on May 23rd from 5-9 at the Steelcase WorkCafe in Grand Rapids, Michigan. See the invite below for the address and additional information.
