Connect with Indiana’s Technology Leadership Community

SIM Indianapolis is the premier executive community for senior technology leaders across
Indiana. Our membership includes CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, and other technology executives.

Connect with Indiana’s Technology Leadership Community

SIM Indy brings together leaders from more than 60 organizations across Indiana’s business, government, education, healthcare, and nonprofit communities. 

For sponsors, this creates something more valuable than traditional event exposure: the opportunity to build credibility and long-term relationships within a trusted community of
technology decision-makers.


SIM Indy sponsorship is not about booth traffic. It is about credibility, visibility, thought leadership, and meaningful access to Indiana’s technology leaders.

Why Sponsor SIM Indianapolis?

strategy, major digital initiatives, and technology vendor decisions.

Sponsors can:

Build relationships

with CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, VPs, Directors, and Senior IT leaders

Increase visibility

throughout the Indiana technology community

Establish thought leadership

around topics important to technology executives

Develop long-term relationships

in a high-trust executive environment
