SHARE Headquarters

SHARE is an independent, volunteer-run information technology association serving professionals in enterprise computing, with a focus on IBM System z mainframe technology. Founded in 1955, the organization aims to support end users and the wider technology industry through education, professional connection, and industry influence.

SHARE offers learning through on-demand educational content, webcasts, technical publications, digital badging, and online discussions.

The association publishes SHARE’d Intelligence, its official source of news and education on enterprise solutions, and provides opportunities for members to contribute stories and explore articles.
