A letter from CRITO's Director:

The Center for Research on Information Technology and Organizations (CRITO) is launching our Focus on Technology and Innovation Campaign. This effort will allow us to continue our research in studying how the increasing digital environment is transforming the way we work and live across the world.

We are kicking off our Focus on Technology and Innovation Campaign by creating a founding fifty-member charter at $5,000 per donation to reach our first milestone of $250,000. Our ultimate goal is to raise $3 million. Through this campaign’s success, CRITO will expand its ability to conduct path-breaking research, inform key debates and shape the knowledge base of the future. Each donation, whatever its size, brings us one step closer to reaching these goals.

CRITO has played a critically important role in the area of IT research over the past 30 years, bridging the gap between the business, social and technical aspects of IT. Our unique interdisciplinary research center provides assistance to young scholars and enables researchers to carry out large-scale and multidisciplinary projects. CRITO contributes to the academic excellence and scholarly reputation of UC Irvine and ensures that IT challenges and issues confronting leaders are analyzed and identified. Through your support, we will be at the forefront of innovation and remain committed to excellence.

Sincerely,

Dr. Vijay Gurbaxani
