New SEMPO Board To Be Announced Soon

I'd mentioned earlier that SEMPO's elections for new board members had finished. So when will the winners be announced? SEMPO tells me the plan is to have a press release out to the general public on Monday, Feb. 28, to coincide with the first day of Search Engine Strategies New York and the open meeting SEMPO is having that same day.

That meeting will throw what are promised to be some tough industry questions to a panel of search experts. It's also when the new board members will be personally introduced to members in attendance.

You may hear about the winners before the formal press release comes out, however. That's because SEMPO says it will be doing a special mailing to its own members before the release, to ensure they know about it directly. When that happens, I'd expect the news to quickly leak out.

In all, there are 13 seats to be filled. SEMPO sent me this list of 29 initial board nominees. I've highlighted existing board members who stood again in bold:

Who will be president or fill other officer roles? The board itself will elect these, as in accordance with SEMPO's by-laws. This should happen in mid-to-late March, SEMPO says.
