Now What? In this session we’ll gain a deeper understanding of why professional associations establish themselves on the Three Pillars of Community, Knowledge and Convening. We’ll then look at threats to the stability of the association industry, what they are and who’s the threat. Building on these understandings, we’ll then explore opportunities that associations have to counter these threats, renewing their relevance to  members, as well as increasing their impact within their ecosystems and the world in general.
