Best wishes. Excellent to connect with everyone this morning. We were asked to establish a coordination space on The CI platform in support of the work of the Steering Committee and Executive group. We have commenced this. It will of course evolve and develop as we move forward with the planning and conduct of this event.

Hi folks - just a quick follow up note to Stephanie's message to remind and prompt you (if you have not done so already) to please complete the doodle poll at this link asap so that we can set the date and time for the next Summit '18 Steering Group meeting. Thanks - much appreciated - please reply by email or a comment in this forum if there are any questions - Warren   

Hi folks - as the number of groups engaged in the organisation of the summit is growing we have moved to adopt a common naming convention for all of the present and future groups. So the URL for the home page of the Steering Group space has changed and can be accessed here. Nothing else should have changed. More soon - thanks - Warren

Dear Steering committee members,

As mentioned in yesterdays meeting by Charlotte (who is heading the Outputs Sub committee), we are developing a brief questionnaire which is designed to inform the planning and development of the communication materials/outputs for this upcoming Summit.  This will be sent to the 750+ participants of the previous conference. 

If possible, it would be great if you can review and comment on the attached draft questionnaire.  You can also add your comments in Google Docs here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iEMKEy_Sx2yOa37lSqn2CR36LAiLVgDcK7P…

As we need to move on this quickly, please could you send in your comments by next week Wednesday, November 22.

If you have any questions or issues, you can either post them within this group or contact me via email on aventh@comminit.com

Many thanks, Anja

This looks terrific! Aside from a quick copy edit, my only comment is that it would be good to include Springboard as well. As with CI it was a platform used before, during and after the Summit for discussion. Not sure best way to integrate into the questionnaire but would like to see it there. Thanks again for all your work on this! Susan
