by Despina Hopkins, Chair, Past Presidents Committee

The HIMSS SoCal Chapter President, Mr. James Brady and the Board of Directors hosted a dinner for the Chapter Past Presidents on January 30^th in Newport Beach following the Privacy & Security Forum. President-Elect Mr. Sri Bharadwaj led a high-level strategy discussion and engaged the participants for their input as we develop our strategy for the next five years. Chapter leaders were delighted and fortunate for the exciting and unique opportunity to review the great foundation laid by our past board members and leaders, and discuss considerations for sustained success for the upcoming years. There was collectively over 200 years of healthcare IT expertise in the room ranging from vendors, technology leaders, nurses and clinicians. Our thanks and appreciate to the past presidents and leaders that shared their time with us.
