ISPIM Membership


ISPIM's membership strategy emphasises quality rather than quantity - professional and scientific quality, as well as the quality of relationships between members. Our commitment to members includes:

  • ensuring a good balance and link between theory and practice in innovation management
  • providing a forum that encourages members from different cultures and backgrounds to network with one another
  • staging events in interesting locations that support scientific and networking needs and are excellent value-for-money

ISPIM's membership has traditionally come predominately from European countries. However, since 2003 membership has increased by around 30% each year and over 40 countries are now represented, including many non-European countries. ISPIM runs two international events per year, the ISPIM Conference in Europe every June and the ISPIM Innovation Symposium in a non-European country every December. This strategy ensures that membership numbers, especially from non-European countries, will continue to grow for the forseeable future.
