2024 Annual General Meeting (AGM)
07 Oct
Overview
The 2024 Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on 7 October 2024 from 10am (for online attendees the virtual waiting room opens at 9:45am) as part of the Microbiology Society’s Committees Day event with options to join online or in person at the Holiday Inn London – Bloomsbury, Coram St, London WC1N 1HT.
The AGM is an opportunity to reflect on and celebrate the work of the Society over the previous year, to understand its financial position and to thank those who stand down from our Council, Committees and Divisions in December. In keeping with our values of being transparent and professional and true to our charitable aims, the AGM presents the 2023 Annual Report, gives members the opportunity to see how our resources are applied and is an opportunity to ask our Trustees questions about how the organisation is managed. We also celebrate the future and look at what is to come for the remainder of the 2023-2027 strategic period and welcome the incoming members to the governance structure!
As a membership charity and not-for-profit publisher, the Society supports and invests in the microbiology community for the benefit of everyone. We rely on the involvement and commitment of our members who support us to be able to continue our work, so please consider publishing with us or getting involved via a range of opportunities – you can find out more here.
All Members are invited to attend and speak at all general meetings of the Society, though only Full, Full Concessionary, Post Graduate Student and Honorary Members may vote.
Members wishing to appoint a proxy should submit their appointment by 4 pm, on Friday 4 October 2024. Full information about how to submit a proxy appointment is available in the AGM 2024 Notice.
The AGM will take place at the Holiday Inn London, Bloomsbury as part of the Society’s Committees Day event. Members who would like to join the AGM, either online or in person, should register their attendance.
Please note that members who have been invited to attend and have already registered for Committees Day, do not need to register for the AGM.
