Although IEEE Collabratec has been freely available for over six months, the formal launch and marketing began on 21 September. You may have already started to see messaging within IEEE communication vehicles such as Society newsletters, membership emails, ieee.org, Spectrum advertising, and various online social mediums outside of IEEE.

• Collaborate, create, and share ideas anytime, anywhere
• Build and manage your own network
• Hold discussions of common interests with global networks

A tool kit is available to continue the promotions at a local level. Here you will find sample promotional copy, web banners, PowerPoint presenations, event flyers, and the IEEE Collabratec brand.
