Working Groups
CIMM Working Groups are a critical forum for sharing insights and perspectives, identifying industry priorities, curating essential discussions with senior stakeholders, shaping research initiatives and establishing best practices.
CIMM’s Working Groups are knowledge communities that play a key role in identifying research priorities and developing projects.
The Groups have been developed based on discussions with members about industry priorities and innovation opportunities that they’re keen to explore and address over the coming year.
Groups meet monthly or quarterly, with guest speakers, research presentations and roundtable discussions.
