Time	Item	Notes
11:00 - 11:10	Arrive, get connected, fix the camera etc.
11:10 - 11:30	Quick round table - where are we running projects that serve communities outside the core membership
11:30 - 12:00	What challenges do we face? (see table below)
12:00 - 13:00	What solutions exist now / might be possible in the future?

Issue	Current Solution	Future Ideas
Not able to charge for events in many countries as we are not VAT registered. Impacts TRANSITS, TNC and expanding training opportunities.	Only run training in certain countries.
The 80 / 20 rule is now pretty well understood in the company and a necessary requirement to support procurement processes for our members, but we don't necessarily understand the priorities for the 20%.	Ad hoc - rely on being told if new ideas are not eligible.
