GRC can organize meetings for outside groups that are related to the basic mission of the Gordon Conferences. The review of the Vision 2020 or workshops for road maps would fit in that category. The cost basis for meetings organized by GRC is divided into three parts: the actual cost of the school or hotel facility; an administrative fee for the operation of the Gordon Conferences; and a fee to create a stipencbstod for the meeting Chair to use in organizing the meeting, if desired. Please inquire about the cost for a particular time and place (cbstorm@grcmail.grc.uri.edu).

The United Engineering Foundation can organize conferences under the leadership of experts in the areas and issues which are important for the Vision 2020 program. The format of the conference provides morning and evening sessions in which major presentations are made. Discussion is emphasized and participants are expected to contribute. Available time is included during the afternoons for ad hoc meetings where summaries and position papers could be drafted, for informal discussions, and/or for recreation. This time is designed to enhance rapport among participants and promote dialogue on the developments of the meeting. Attendance can be restricted to "by invitation only" or broadened to those willing to participate by paying the conference fee. Conferences could be held at resort-type locations either in the US or internationally. Conference participants stay at the same hotel and take meals together, thereby promoting interaction and networking.
