Mid-Atlantic Chapter

Welcome!

The Mid-Atlantic chapter of the Insights Association is 400+ strong, and covers the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia.

We are dedicated to creating a robust community of Insight Professionals by helping members increase their knowledge of the field, grow their business, and expand their professional networks. Our flagship event each year is the Summer Symposium (August 1st, 2019), but we sponsor smaller educational and networking opportunities throughout the year. In 2019, we have a special focus on increasing engagement with college students, and have been awarded a Q2 Special Project Grant from National for this purpose.

Looking for ways to be involved?
