Membership entails mandatory attendance at the Glob Annual General Meeting (AGM) at least once every two years. Meeting attendance circumstances will be individually evaluated and are at the discretion of Glob Network Management. Each attendee or group registering for the Glob Summit is subject to the stated terms and conditions.
