Informata: Upcoming Industry Meetings and Webinars - February 16

Here are the industry events and webinars I'm aware of for February 16 - May 31, 2025. I don't have anything to do with any of these from a planning perspective, so please reach out to the individual event producers with any questions. Note also that I generally don't include training courses in this list.

If you know of a webinar or other event during this period that is focused on IM, IG, RM, etc. that's not listed, let me know here or at jesse.wilkins@athroconsulting.com. No charge to list your event or to access the list.

Vendors, other associations, consultants, etc. all welcome as long as the event is educational and not completely self-serving, e.g., no demos. If you are interested in listing your solution-specific webinar or event, please contact me about placing and highlighting your event.
