The IntermediaryThe Intermediary was an annual publication featuring a variety of articles relating to ITIC's membership. As the membership has diversified, it was necessary to have more tailored publications. The Intermediary has therefore been replaced by The Wire, a sector-specific e-newsletter. All the issues of The Intermediary are below but please be aware that as the publication goes back as far as 1996 some data will be out of date.
