CITI Sponsors

CITI sponsors play a critical role in our ability to achieve our mission. From supporting lecture series featuring leading experts in their fields, to funding innovative new research in information technology, generous individuals and corporations help us to do our job better. CITI's mission is to build a community of scholars with complementary expertise to solve complex problems, and with the help of our sponsors, we are able to do this in a variety of ways, through lecture series, luncheons, and other outreach efforts.
