ASCII Members:
Welcome to GTIA!

Dues: Great news! You will receive a $350 credit on your account towards future membership dues.  Moving forward, at time of renewal, annual membership dues will be just $839. 

Everything you have today continues: ASCII Edge events (including your complimentary hotel night), ASCII Link peer forum, vendor discounts, monthly marketing assets and practical tools like state tax guides all remain in place.

New access, included at no additional cost. GTIA membership is now part of your ASCII membership. That means access to GTIA's industry research, training and education for you and your entire team, cybersecurity resources through the ISAO, and free registration to ChannelCon and all GTIA community events, and more.

The acquisition is effective immediately. You'll receive direct communication with specific timing and any steps you need to take.

This is the question that mattered most in how this acquisition was structured, and it shaped every decision. ASCII operates as its own community within GTIA, with its own brand, its own events and its own peer culture. GTIA brings infrastructure, resources and global reach.  The trust, the intimacy, the ground-level practitioner focus that makes ASCII valuable—those are exactly what GTIA is investing in.

Exactly where they have always been. ASCII Edge events continue as regional, peer-driven gatherings in the same format you know.

ASCII Link remains your go-to forum for peer-to-peer, tactical and technical support. Nothing is moving to a new platform or changing its format.

ASCII's sponsor-supported model remains structurally separate and unchanged. The vendors and sponsors you engage with through ASCII continue on the same terms. GTIA's involvement gives those organizations greater infrastructure and wider reach—which means the events and programs they support are in an even stronger position going forward.
