Membership

Membership connects entrepreneurs, businesses and institutions across borders. Every application is reviewed against published criteria - membership is not granted automatically, and it is not a badge you buy.

Founding membership. Membership is free during the founding phase — the first two years, while the directory is being built. It will not be free permanently: subscription pricing follows, and founding members will be shown the rates and asked to choose before anything is charged. No card details are taken at application and nobody is billed automatically. Honorary membership is never charged for, in any phase.
Process

How an application is handled

  1. Application You tell us who you are, what you run and why you want to join.
  2. Verification We check the claims that matter: your identity, your role and your business, against documentary sources.
  3. Review The membership team assesses the application against the published criteria for that category.
  4. Decision You are told the outcome by email, with the reason if the answer is no.
  5. Listing If you approved it, your profile joins the public directory with the badges the evidence supports.
On your data. Appearing in the public directory is a separate, explicit choice on the application form. You can withdraw that consent at any time and we will remove the listing. See the privacy policy.
