[Global_membership_committee] Corporate Membership Model

[Fabio Cerullo]

hi Alison et al,

Apologies for jumping on this thread but I think the corporate membership
model could be improved.

For example, instead of having only a single membership option of 5000 U$D
which some companies might find prohibitive we could offer different
memberships with different benefits similar to the OWASP conference
sponsorships (ie platinum, silver, gold, bronze)

In this way we could capture contributions from small businesses to big
corporations offering them alternatives that will adequate to their budget.
Obviously, the membership costs and benefits need to be discussed however
this model could attract more members.

just my .02 cents... any questions please let me know.

thanks

Fabio
