Abstract
In contrast with other professional organizations, which are membership based, the IFMBE is a federation that forms an umbrella to unite many national and trans-national societies. Except for a small number of individuals who are members of its International Academy and very few members from countries that do not have an organized society, IFMBE does not have individual members. This presents the first major challenge to the Federation namely, identifying individuals who will devote time and effort to the organization. We have been very fortunate in the past.
