Hi All,  I wanted to introduce myself, since I’ve joined the Live Events Council late this past year. My name is Victoria Gonzalo, and I would love to connect with you all - http://linkedin.com/in/victoriabarela In the past few years, I have re-aligned my career from AV Control System Programming back to Event Production - wearing many hats, as I’m sure we all do. Currently, I’m balancing co-owning a production company (with Aaron Davis, who is also new to the council), freelancing as Stage Manager, and diving in head first testing for the PMP.  In the last November meeting when asked about our goals for 2025, I brought up the idea to incorporate Round Table discussions, where members are able to bring a current problem, opportunity, or discussion to the table in order to further develop a solution. The Round Table discussion's main goal is to further support us as colleagues in the Live Events industry in current reachable activities we are involved in and hopefully make a difference.  It seems like this Round Table has been done in the past and sounded productive. We can have an in-person space for this (2 per meeting) and an online space for it (for those who couldn't make the meeting and would like to participate). Jim has tasked me to start this Round Table up, and I’d love to gather some data points: •⁠  ⁠About how many (active) members are there?•⁠  ⁠Will we have a meeting every month? - (I’m currently guessing 10 for the year, since InfoComm happens and let’s say one month is skipped). •⁠  ⁠Do we have a current schedule for 2025 of the meeting dates?•⁠  ⁠We can have a goal to have 20 signed up for the year to discuss.  I hope this Round Table is viewed as an opportunity to share, and not a chore. We all are involved in this council in hopes of supporting the industry and staying engaged. Feel free to reply back with your thoughts and comments. Always happy to adjust to what fits our needs.Let’s make the most of this, and we can re-evaluate mid-year if the Round Table is successful or not.  Excited to stay engaged and wishing everyone a powerful start to the new year~ _v
