Message from the Chairman

Dear Members and Supporters,

As someone deeply passionate about research and technology, I am thrilled to share our vision of creating a global network of professionals dedicated to knowledge sharing and mentorship.

During the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic, I had the privilege of collaborating with renowned researchers at Carnegie Mellon University, discussing data analytics and hypotheses. It was an enriching experience that fueled my commitment to leading the International Association of Technology and Management (IATM).

At IATM, we aim to replicate this collaborative spirit by connecting professionals worldwide in the realms of research, technology, and data analytics. We believe that effective communication and data interpretation are paramount in academia and the business industry. Clive Humby, a British mathematician and entrepreneur said it best, “Data is the new oil.”

Using technology, research, and exploratory skills are the keys to extracting meaning from data. Our organization emphasizes key elements such as international partnerships, global networking, data driven decision-making, cross-cultural knowledge exchange, and mentorship. We also stress continuous learning and best practices.

None of this would be possible without a plethora of expertise and resources. I extend heartfelt gratitude to our members of the IATM advisory board and international advisory board for their dedication and support in turning this vision into reality. Stay tuned—there’s more to come!

For those of you who are new to IATM, come join us as we "pave the way" for tomorrow's leaders in research, technology, and business. Let's make a difference together!

Sincerely,

Larry C. Pickett
