The Society for Information Management Capital (Washington, DC-Metro) Area Chapter (SIMCAC) is a prestigious professional group for executive and senior technology leaders, with over 120 members.

SIMCAC members include CIOs, CTOs, CDOs, CISOs, and other senior technology leaders, their direct reports, prominent academics, and some other technology thought leaders (many of which are former technology executives). As such, it represents a concentrated audience of executives deeply involved in the products and services procurement process.  SIMCAC is organized and run by a volunteer board.

Sponsors are an essential part of our community: providing thought leadership in key areas, helping to arrange and fund great programs, and supporting our charitable foundation activities. As such, we welcome opportunities to work with current and prospective sponsors to maximize the value of sponsorship.  We invite you to review our current offerings and to contact us to discuss.

All money raised above our operating costs is donated to STEM-related charities in the region, often over $50,000 a year in charitable giving.

There are three primary opportunities to partner with SIMCAC as a sponsor:

1. Annual Charitable Golf Outing

2. Quarterly Enclave Dinners

3. Annual Member Appreciation Dinner

For more information about any of these opportunities, or to become a sponsor, please contact us at sponsorship@simcac.org.

Annual Charitable Golf Outing

SIMCACs annual charitable golf outing is a great opportunity for our members to connect with each other and sponsors, while enjoying a fun day of golf and celebrating giving to several SIMCAC charitable partners.

This year’s outing will be on October 9, 2024, at Worthington Manor Golf Club.

Please see our Sponsorship Brochure.

With most golf sponsorship packages, you get included access to attend one of the monthly in-person or virtual events at no extra cost. Attendance at an event is limited to 3 vendors per event.

Note: You do not have to be good at golf (many of us are not). It is a fun, relaxed event where teams play the best ball on each shot.

For more information about Fall 2024 sponsorship packages, please see the Golf Sponsorship page.

For all sponsorship levels, if a sponsor would like to add additional practitioners as a guest, it will be $150 per golfer.

Quarterly Enclave Dinners

SIMCAC’s quarterly enclave dinners are intimate, invitation-only evenings for 12 prestigious DC-area CIOs and other technology executives (e.g., CTO, CISO, CDO).  The conversation is often focused on recent trends, such as Generative AI, projects or challenges that attendees are focused on, or other issues of note, such as recruiting, developing, and retaining great teams.

Enclave sponsorships are priced at $5,000 per sponsorship, per-dinner for up to two sponsors, who attend the event, and contribute the discussion.  SIMCAC encourages sponsors to consider sending a technical practitioner to contribute to the technical aspects of the discussion.

Upcoming enclaves held on a quarterly basis, and are currently, tentatively planned for:

• July 31, 2024
• Nov 7, 2024
• Feb 6, 2025
• May 1, 2025
• Aug 7, 2025
• Nov 6, 2025

Annual Member Appreciation Dinner

SIMCAC’s member appreciation dinner is usually held in January or February, with approximately 80 attendees.  The event is always a wonderful night of celebrating the past year and connecting for members and their guests.  We enjoy delicious food and outstanding paired wines, while also presenting checks to some of our STEM charitable organizations.
