What does "ITANA" Stand for?"When ITANA was first formed in 2007, the focus was on IT Architecture in Academia (IT Architect iN Academia – ITANA). In 2012, we expanded the focus to include Enterprise Architects and Business Architects in Academia. We didn’t change the name to EBITANA because it is hard to say and the name ITANA was well known. So ITANA moved from standing for something to being just a name. I guess I should change the spelling to Itana now but I kind of like it all caps ITANA." — Jim Phelps, Founder and Chair |
