Global committee update Committee: MEMBERSHIP/Committee Chair: DAN CORNELL
Committee members • Chair: • Dan Cornell • Members: • Michael Coates • Tony UcedaVelez • Ofer Maor • Helen Gao • Applicants: None
Accomplishments in march • Budget Update • Draft budget has been discussed. One item on the budget: • Membership Committee Administrative Support • 2. Regional Supporters • Discussed creating a Regional supporter model that would be more compatible with non-US and Western European supporters. Ofer Maor has outlined a potential model for this and it is under Membership Committee review. • 3. Attracting Industry Supporters • There is a desire to attract more “Industry” (ie non-vendor) Organizational Supporters. This will require an overhaul of the benefits offered to Supporters. Some initial discussions have been had about how this might be accomplished. • 4. Attracting Non-US and Western Europe Members • There is a desire to attract more Members from non-US and non-WesterEurope individuals. This will require reducing the cost of individual Membership for some of these individuals and will likely involve overhauling the benefits provided.
Items that need Board Vote/approval • Budget • Committee needs $10,000 in order to hire some administrative support to provide regular calls and other contact with Members and Supporters.
Ongoing projects and efforts • Create Regional Supporter Options • Attract more Industry Supporters • Attract more non-US and non-Western Europe members
