IEEE Central Texas Section SWOT Analysis Strengths  Local chip design and EDA companies, UT Austin Weaknesses  Location problem  “Memberships” Opportunities  Co-sponsor events with other chapters and Semiconductor/EDA company events Threats  Differentiate with other parent societies/chapters

IEEE Central Texas Section Membership by the Numbers 1/15/2015 What constitutes a “CEDA Member”? Central Texas Chapter CEDA  list #1673  Actual council members #22 Only 2 of the 5 officers are “members” No one really knows how to join CEDA  Educate our IEEE society members in the CEDA list on how to become a CEDA member (this is a no-cost event)  If our efforts prove successful, help the other councils  Recruiting IEEE members not part of societies to join CEDA helps the overall CTS chapter with new society memberships.

IEEE Central Texas Section Chapter Plans Coordinate a home meeting location (like we had at Parmer) TexasWISE 2015 Co-sponsor annual consultants workshop ICCAD support activities in November  Possibly co-sponsor a workshop Elections in November Happy hour event at the end of 2015
