- Hi Ulrike, happy to help.
I could come up with all sorts of suugestions, but if its OK with you I would like to copy your post to Ewan M ( who helpe set up 38 minutes for DMET) who is a bit of an expert in building valuable on-line communities.
However it would be good to get you come to Aberdeen and we could meet with RGU and UoA , have a company meeting with B1, introduce you to Data2Text and have a brainstorm workshop with David M about building a flourishing medtech sector in Aberdeen....Could you spare 2 days in mid to late June?
Also is there an annoying glitch that when you type long comments like this I am not seeing what I am typing.......SH

So how do we help make this into a community then?
One thought I have is that there is a thinking process tool which takes an ambitious objective...for instance " The LSS Community is a vibrant, dynamic and useful site. Valued by its memebers , more than 80% of whom visit at last once a week and more than 50% regularly comment or contribute to discussions" and we then think of the obstacles & prolems which prevent this from being a realiy...for instance..people do not know f thecommunities existence...people ae too busy to visit the site...people are scared to comment....etc. The next step in the process is to then think of ways to overcome these obstacles....just a thought.
Warm Regards
Steve H
