Established in August 2001, the Minnesota IT Leadership Forum was created by efm and initial leadership and partnership from IT leaders within Target Corporation, Cargill, Medtronic and Carlson Companies. Since its inception, the Minnesota IT Leadership Forum has grown significantly. From those three initial companies the Forum is now represented monthly by IT leaders from 37 companies of which 14 are Fortune 500 companies.
Covering topics ranging from contract negotiation to disaster recovery to best practices for vendor management, this group has solidified itself as a critical mass of IT leaders in the region. The Minnesota IT Leadership Forum is the guiding force behind the Minnesota IT Symposium which is an annual “by invitation only” event for IT leaders throughout Minnesota and the surrounding states.
