Advisory Council
The GlobalPlatform Advisory Council is a forum which meets at least twice each year. Advisory Council meetings provide all GlobalPlatform members with the opportunity to engage directly with the Board of Directors, committee chairs, and GlobalPlatform's Technical and Executive Directors. The purpose of meetings is to provide a framework for an open dialogue around priority issues. Members are encouraged to share insight and expertise regarding industry trends affecting their business interests and which ultimately will affect the GlobalPlatform Specifications. By seeking member feedback at this level and using it to shape the organization's strategic and technical priorities and activities, GlobalPlatform ensures that its technology always remains relevant and evolves in line with members' needs and market requirements.
