Ignite is tonight. The Meeting Highlights Webinar is next week. The next ESIP Meeting kicks off July 18 in Pittsburgh, PA. 

A note from our Executive Director.

ESIP, thank you! I really mean that. The January meeting was action packed because of all of you. Thank you to our session organizers who went the extra mile with facilitation training. Thank you to our outgoing and incoming leadership. Thank you to our Community Fellows who stepped up and made their presence felt in so many ways. And thank you to our first-time attendees for joining us. 

🌐 Conference attendees: If you haven’t already, please give us your feedback on the meeting so we can continue to iterate and innovate. 

🌐 Save the date for July! We can’t wait to see you all in person.

🌐 Today is also the last day to order your Data For All T-shirt.

🌐 Tonight is also the Ignite@AGU Watch Party. See you at 6 p.m. EST!

🌐 Mark your calendars for the January 2022 ESIP Meeting Highlights Webinar: Friday, February 11 at 1 p.m. EST.
