Join us to support the communication and coordination of Swedish ATMP
The 8th of March a start up meeting for Föreningen ATMP Sweden was held. An interimstyrelse was put in place to register the organisation, establish a bank account, recruit members and receive nominations for the Board/styrelseledamöter, that will be voted in by members at the AGM in May/June 2023. The meeting minutes and updated statutes/stadgar from the startup meeting will be published soon.
Föreningen ATMP Sweden is being established as an ideell förening with the intention of forming a legal entity from which the ATMP Sweden communication platforms and events can be run. Since establishment of ATMP Sweden we have been dependent on project partners to sign agreements and pay bills, which is not sustainable. The extra bonus of Föreningen ATMP Sweden will be formalisation of our already well established network and match making functions to partner capabilities in Sweden and internationally.
In order to help us keep our tight timelines for getting this förening functioning we ask that interested parties (individuals and organisations) register their interest to be members of ATMP Sweden. We also ask for nominations for board members and expert advisors as per the text below. Interest to participate in expert member run working groups can be registered in the membership interest survey.
At ATMP Sweden, we thank everyone for efforts so far in building up this wonderful platform, it is the projects that have made this possible. We look forward to working inclusively with the Swedish ATMP network to build and implement new medicines while paying heed to the economic development necessary for patient access.
The start up meeting was a follow on from the information meeting the 15th of February 2023. Formation of Föreningen ATMP Sweden is part of the ATMP2030 project Sustainable continuation initiated January 2021.
De nästa stegen för att bygga Föreningen ATMP Sweden är nu igång! Efter formaliteterna på startmötet den 8 mars kommer interimsstyrelsen att börja planera föreningens kommande medlemsmöte, ansöka om organisationsnummer och skaffa ett bankkonto. Därefter kan föreningen börja samla in de medlemsavgifter som bestäms vid det kommande medlemsmötet.
Fram till dess välkomnar interimsstyrelsen intresseanmälningar om medlemskap. Personer från 86 olika organisationer har redan uttryckt intresse om medlemskap i föreningen.

Som diskuterades på mötet den 8 mars, välkomnar vi nomineringar av styrelseledamöter.

Dessa kompetenser syftar till att säkerställa att Föreningen ATMP Sweden skall stå på en solid grund som möjliggör att pågående projekt och medlemsdrivna arbetsgrupper kan dra nytta av styrkan i nätverket och bidra till visionen att göra Sverige ledande inom ATMP 2030.
