About joining

The Greater IBM Connection

What's in it for me?

When you join The Greater IBM Connection, you'll network with an elite community that shares your experience, values and high standards. Only current, former or retired employees of IBM can be part of this community. And we're dedicated to making the experience as special as the people who belong.

  • Connect or reconnect with colleagues: You have access to directories, tools for email, and ways to contribute your ideas through articles, Blogs, forums, and Wiki's.
  • Join others in face-to-face and online events - both educational and social. You'll hear and interact with leaders shaping our industry and culture.
  • Stay abreast of what's going on in IBM, new technologies, innovations, industry trends, and changes in the workforce or in benefit programs.
  • Find others with similar interests or goals - and create opportunities to collaborate on projects.
  • We're adding new features and services all the time - many as a result of suggestions from other Greater IBMers.
  • And there's no cost to be a Greater IBMer - ever. What's not to like?
