BrainStore Network Updates 2024

Dear BrainStore Partners

Here is a short update from BrainStore.

During 2023, the Network Champs reflected on the future of the BrainStore network.

Two observations struck our special attention.

The phenomenon of inactive BrainStore Partners (partners without any interactions during at least 12 months) - who contribute to the fixed costs (via the monthly subscription fees paid by the network) and who still appear on the partner's page as active partners.

A growing number of people have been actively involved in BrainStore projects, Lobby meetings, Onboarding and Network events, etc.

To address these two topics, we decided to implement the following.

Creation of the status of BrainStore Member (for partners who want to step down from their partnership or people interested or active in BrainStore's activities)

Yearly Pay-What-You-Wish contributions for BrainStore Members and BrainStore Partners are due yearly in December, the first time in December 2024.

The suggested options for inactive partners are the following:

Option 1: Reactivate your BrainStore activities - this would be our biggest wish :-)
Option 2: Step down as a BrainStore Partner and become a BrainStore Member (stores will be deactivated)

Option 3: Leave the Brainstore Partner Network (stores will be deactivated)

We prepared a page for you to study the proposed modifications regarding the agreement(s) you signed.

If you agree with the modifications, no action from your side is required. If you would like to discuss the changes, please let us know before Jan 31, 2024, and we will schedule a discussion in an upcoming lobby meeting.

Best regards

The Network Champs
