Notes
- Review prospects and current members
- Membership strategy
- Summary and feedback on the membership analysis report
- Useful report, would have been great to have earlier on
- Will this be shared with the Leadership Group?
- Ideally, yes - the plan is to share with this group and then with Leaders
- Some of the recommendations are related to governance activities
- In light of recent membership cancellations this is important
- The report makes clear that there is a lot of risk - small number of high level members accounting for much of the budget
- Need to diversify through outreach to other countries
- Need to think about composition of membership task force - are other Leaders interested?
- The report is strategic; membership task force could become more strategic
- This group isn't reporting directly to Leaders - should be a regular item on the agenda
- Show financials and impact of membership on budget
- Leaders need to advocate for VIVO usage and membership
- Current users of Elsevier products aren't coming to VIVO conference but they should be - bring them in
- VIVO needs to expand beyond its current user base - lots of potential
- Need to increase users, not just members
- Expansion via user groups
- Establish official user groups (e.g. in Germany)
- Latin America is a good prospect, Mic was contacted by VIVO users in Costa Rica
- Conferences and events need to be more strategic in terms of increasing users and members
- European VIVO conference could be held in conjunction with EuroCRIS conference
- No equivalent in US, maybe Expert Finder conference? Associate VIVO conference with this event
- Working with LYRASIS
- VIVO webinars for members
- VIVO has international members, they should be invited to speak at the webinar
- VIVO webinars for members
- Summary and feedback on the membership analysis report
