  2. Current SMG Composition

  3. Discussion points SMG: Less than 20% Representation from Academia >30% of our members have been in the same TC for > five years Similar trends in some (not all) TCs Representation (Academia/Industry/Govt) in some TCs seems skewed – which may be appropriate in some areas Bottom line: Each TC should consider their current profile and, as appropriate, set goals and actions to improve Plan to hold Telecon with Membership chairs/TC chairs in next few weeks to provide forum to share best practices and concerns
