Today, July 29th, 2007

It has been exactly 16 days since Wayne Cook handed over The Toronto Graphic Design Entrepreneur Group to myself, Tm Mahdi. In the last 6 months, this group has under gone many transformations.

Prior Wayne's take over, this group was formerly called The Toronto Graphic Design Meetup, managed by Janice of 5 years. The TGD is the oldest and largest group within our market on meetup.com. There maintained a front of history, depth and character.

In the last 2 quarters that group has transformed from its deep meaning and tone to what is today. A structure of media professionals and graphic artists. At over 600 members our group will be undergoing a number of transformation. As such, an agenda will be introduced and in most cases it will be voted by our members - that's you.

After a vote, a new name will be announced to the group that best fits its members and the future of the group. The frequency of our meetups will also be decided.

The discussion board will be cleaned up and maintained to suite our members interests and formation. As well a new group profile will be drafted, cleaned up and finalized.

From then on and after several great meet ups, I will be in the hunt for creative and throbbing Assistant Organizers to help build and strengthen our group with new characters, style and tone.

I'd appreciate to hear everyone's suggestions, thoughts and feedback now or during the transition. At the same time, I look forward to meeting with most of you and getting to know you as professionals and as individuals united under one group, under this group and representing our market and our specialists.

Best Regards,

Tm Mahdi,
Organizer
