12. Communication  Project activities and results are disseminated to a wide audience  Subject to agreement between all the participating members that it does not compromise legitimate academic or commercial interests  Press releases (must not imply endorsement of products by research labs etc.)  Visibility and presence of member companies on the website is proportional to membership level Fons Rademakers – CERN openlab

13. CERN openlab Open Day  High-visibility public event to promote the activities and results of CERN openlab and its projects Press sessions Demos and interactive sessions Industry exhibition area  Each member is given visibility and seats according to their membership level Members can invite their partners/customers Visits to CERN installations (LHC, etc.) can be organised for participants Globe @ CERN Capacity ~200 Fons Rademakers – CERN openlab13

14. Membership Benefits  Work in close collaboration with CERN experts on large-scale applications of technologies and products  Visibility in CERN openlab activities proportional to the membership status  Participation of openlab personnel at conferences and events to promote the technologies and results of the collaboration  Support for organizing visits to CERN installations, technical presentations and seminars about technologies and products  Activities of all Partner Members featured prominently in the openlab Annual Report  Summer students assigned to work on openlab Industrial Members Projects Fons Rademakers – CERN openlab14
