2015 Forum Member Recognition
The EMV Migration Forum (now the U.S. Payments Forum) has a highly active membership, with members contributing time and expertise on Forum projects and deliverables. The Working Committees and Steering Committee managed multiple member-driven projects to create such resources as white papers, webinars, presentations, and web content, and more.
The EMV Migration Forum recognized members who led and contributed to projects at the Forum meeting in Dallas in September 2015. Members recognized included:
- Working Committee chairs
- Top Contributors to Working Committee and Steering Committee projects
- Member Honor Roll including members who contributed to at least two projects or led one project
The recognition was based on member contributions to projects completed between January 2014 and June 2015, which consisted of 26 projects across all Working Committees and the Steering Committee.
The EMV Migration Forum thanks all of our members and extends our gratitude for the high level of enthusiasm and commitment shown by all members.
