Event Collaborations

ECGI provides a global platform for high-quality academic events, amplifying the activities of ECGI Research Members.

Collaborations are usually initiated by ECGI research members who recognise the value of ECGI’s global audience and brand in promoting their events. ECGI encourages more of the 327 research members to use this service. To this end, a reasonable cost for the service allows ECGI to sustain and develop its activities more broadly and for the good of everyone in the network. The service helps research members to grow their mailing lists, improve and diversify attendance at their events, inform others in the network of their activities.

Co-organising an event with ECGI means:

Use of the ECGI logo and brand to promote the event
Circulation to 4,300 active subscribers on the ECGI mailing list (last updated January 2021)

Diverse recipient profiles, with both academic (45%) and practitioner (55%) (estimate)
Collection and sharing of those who opt-in to partner mailing lists (complying with data regulations)
Strong registrations, attendance, and engagement
Posting to ECGI's social media channels: 3,445 Followers on LinkedIn | 1,011 Twitter | 513 YouTube | 292 Facebook (January 2021)

* Academic Institutional Members can avail of this service free of charge – up to three times a calendar year. Academic Institutional Membership of ECGI costs EUR 2,000 per annum and entitles the school, faculty or university to have its own page on the ECGI website and to include information about, for example, its related conferences and teaching programs. It is also possible to feature faculty members profiles and provide them with access to ECGI communications. ECGI greatly relies on this membership category to maintain its high level of activities for the public good. Typically, the subscription fee is paid from the (sometimes shared) research budgets of ECGI research members. A list of the current Institutional Members is available here. To express interest, please contact elaine.mcpartlan@ecgi.org.
