Notes
Community engagement strategy
- VIVO Camps
- Scheduled based on critical mass of interest. Somewhat ad hoc
- Do we need new criteria?
- Camps so far have had fairly low turnout
- Can we gauge interest ahead of time?
- Need to plan in advance - ideally 6 months or more
- Create a survey to gauge interest
- Where to host?
- Weill Cornell, Duke, UNC?
- Conferences
- Where/when is the next VIVO conference?
- Workshops and user group meetings alongside other conferences
- Ann working on a membership reminder email for VIVO conference attendees
Prospects
- Ann emailing sites from registry to gather information
Action Items
- David Wilcox Draft membership report indicating which prospects are likely to become members
- Ann Beynon send message to VIVO leaders with link to last LG meeting agenda and pitch to join this group (instead of this, we discussed it in the August LG meeting)
- David Wilcox reach out to Christian about meeting on engagement re: German user group
- Ann Beynon contact Communication task force about following up with conference attendees about membership
