CTLS in 2018 and beyond…

How do we envision CTLS in the future, and how do we translate this vision into ac-on?

CTLS in 2018 and beyond…

In 2018, our flagship will no doubt be the CTLS2018 congress

CCTLS2018 congress (Chris Guerin)

• Biennal periodicity (at least for the moment being)?
• Process of selec-on of venue for 2020 :

Call for candidate venues should be launched in 2018: early spring?

• Should we aim at selec-ng the venue and dates of CTLS2020

at the EC mee-ng that will take place during the CTLS2018 congress, and announce the result during the AGM ?

• r should we just announce who are the CTLS2020 candidates

during the 2018 AGM ?

• Should we repeat the CTLS2018 set-up: signature of a MoU with the local
• rganizing ins-tu-on defining sharing of responsibili-es and benefits

(financial risks and profits)?

• r should we aim towards an “ABRF-like model”,

with CTLS being the sole organizer of its congresses?

Future congresses

• Have we already iden-fied events

that CTLS could associate with or could co-organize?

• One of the goals is to avoid a loss of momentum

acer the CTLS2018 congress

• Core Management Workshop (CMW) in New York in the autumn of 2018,

followed by a similar CMW event in Europe in 2019: what could be the role of CTLS in these events? Help in adver-sing the events in exchange for reduced fees for CTLS members? Help in the organiza-on by proposing speakers? Help in the funding via bursaries? * Other events?

Other potenBal events for 2018-2019

Strategic focus of CTLS

• The main principles were delineated by Spencer Shorte yesterday:

Inclusiveness, broadness of representa-vity, community drive, …

• Should we aim at wri-ng a brief “white paper” or “posi-on paper”

defining clearly the aims and specificity of CTLS ?

• Publica-on on the website … but also in a journal ?

(see for instance the paper that Core for Life published in 2016) Could serve as a global basis for advocacy: airac-ng members, fundraising, lobbying, …

Strategic focus of CTLS

• Beyond congresses and training events

What should be our ac-vi-es? CTLS as “provider of services” for the Core community

• Quality Management for “Scien-fic Research Services”
• Technology Transfer and Shared Resources Management
• Professional Mentorship (infrastructure, organisa-on, individual career

development, crisis & conflict management)

• Launching of a “massive” campaign for ac-ve membership

using notably the CTLS2018 congress as an “airactor”: end of 2017 or January 2018?

• Use of the “CTLS2014-CTLS2016” mailing list

… but also other network mailing-lists (on a quid-pro-quo basis)?

• Ins-tu-onal partnership:

do we agree to use the “group membership scheme” as an ini-al step? Establishment of a list of ins-tu-ons/organiza-ons to approach before the end of 2017 (validated by the EC)

• r do we already start thinking about more formal partnerships (MoU template, …)
• Associate membership:

defining beier what this membership category is and what would be the benefits of membership for “commercial organiza-on” personnel Establishment of a target mailing-list: when and how to approach?
