Corporate Roundtable Governing Policies
Participation in Corporate Roundtable (CRT) and the American Academy of Neurology Foundation (AAN Foundation) Activities
- Corporate Roundtable Membership is based on a calendar year and current dues payment
- CRT members are asked to identify primary, secondary and other contacts for CRT activities throughout the year. Any substitutions must be submitted in writing.
- The Foundation is responsible for implementing and enforcing CRT benefits.
- No former employees of the AAN or AAN Foundation can be the primary or secondary contact for the member company.
- To preserve the open, professional collegiate atmosphere of the CRT, there can be no solicitation of CRT and AAN members during CRT functions.
- Access to the AAN and AAN Foundation activities is a privilege, not a right. If a CRT member violates these Corporate Roundtable guidelines, the AAN Foundation reserves the right to ask a member to leave the activity and/or forfeit their membership if the violation continues.
- All guidelines issued by the AAN are endorsed by the AAN Foundation. CRT members are expected to understand and adhere to those guidelines including, but not limited to, ACCME, Press Room and Industry Participation in the Annual Meeting guidelines.
