Q1 Member Meeting for 2019

Electronic Arts has graciously offered to host our first member meeting of 2019. The meeting will take place on February 5. Raj Grewal, our host at Electronic Arts came up with the idea to have a meeting that provides a more optimistic spin on some of the things that are going on in Immigration. The topic will be "Immigration: It's Not All Bad". I'm looking forward to this one.

WHERE IT ALL STARTED

LETTER FROM OUR FOUNDER

WINGs Membership is open to individuals and companies who have direct responsibility for managing an Immigration Program. Since our founding in 1997 we’ve continued to evolve and grow our network of immigration professonals.

Dear WINGs Members,

Many people have asked me how WINGs was originally formed. Well, it all started when Adaptec asked me to attend the ACIP Annual Symposium in June, 1997. Let me tell you, it was an eye opener! I had always been the sole immigration person at the previous companies I had worked for and felt that my co-workers and even management never really understood the immigration "lingo" or the challenges I faced. I also believed that many times I was reinventing the wheel and wondered how other companies handled certain laws, processes, etc. The symposium opened this whole new world to me! Here were over 200 people that understood the friend story ("But I have a friend...."). They shared the same experiences, concerns, and even frustrations that I did. I felt like I had come home!

WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY

WINGs is an invaluable resource for in-house immigration professionals. It provides an open and supportive platform on topics and issues that are relevant to the daily work of corporate in-house immigration. Through active email discussions, benchmarking surveys and networking meetings, WINGs definitely helps to strategize and develop solutions to the diverse needs and demands of in-house immigration management!

Being a WINGs member has been a great experience for me. It’s not only a fantastic way to stay connected to what’s going on in the fast paced Immigration world, it’s a terrific opportunity for networking and quick benchmarking. Of course it’s also great to find people who speak the same language and can truly commiserate with your day to day frustrations!

WINGs is a unique organization in which members are very interactive with each other, which provides an opportunity to build wonderful working relationships. I’ve been a member since the mid 1990’s.
