BUSINESS GROUP

The Business Group consists of members and their delegates (substitutes) and conducts face-to-face as well as virtual meetings throughout the year.

The Business Group meets in spring and fall of each year (US and Europe).  Each of the one and a half day meetings is immediately followed by a one day Tech Meeting when guests from the industry and academia are invited as well.  Review more here.

Within the virtual interaction, the Business Group conducts several surveys and live webinars open, once more, to members, only, and their delegates.
