In 2012 MemberWise, the independent professional networking group, consulted with over 3,000 membership organisations and associations to understand how the sector harnesses the power of the web to drive membership value and growth. It is the biggest survey of this type that I am aware of.

The results contained within the survey make for compelling reading.  I was amazed at a number of the findings and intrigued about the wider implications.  When the results are published later this month you can expect a number of blogs from me.

In the meantime, IndigoBlue is delighted to be sponsors of the report and is partnering with MemberWise to host a launch event at the RSA on 12^th February.  Demand for this event has been extremely high and only a few places remain.

The British Horse Society has launched a brand new digital destination, via its new website developed on Sitecore via digital partners e3.  The site overhaul is part of an on-going technology modernisation programme for the British Horse Society, architected and programme managed by IndigoBlue that will improve the overall membership experience and provide a strong platform for future developments. Further benefits planned for 2013 include the development of a fully personalised membership area and closer integration with the new CRM and membership system developed on Silverbear's Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform.

Where are the savings that IT can make for non-for-profit organisations? 

This question has been prompted firstly by the recent Government Charity Report and secondly by a meeting we had recently with a consultant on behalf of a cross-sector organisation promoting the UK's digitally capability (which quotes NCVO identifying ICT as the biggest skill-gap in the charity sector).

What are the next steps for organisations using Integra?

Overview

Many organisations who depend on Integra are now considering the future.  Iris has launched it's new Integra NG product, which offers potentially significant improvements, but moving requries  large scale changes to both technology and process as a result. There are many opportunities that can be grasped by this change and moving to Integra NG is not necessarily a natural progression. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the varying options and share experience between organisations within the sector.
