CES membership

Selling membership of a think tank means selling access to rooms, which is a harder proposition to put on a page than a product. Two brochures and a deck.

SYS.01 Objective

CES membership is priced for senior people and offers intangibles: intelligence before it reaches the mainstream, and proximity to C-suite executives, senior policymakers and defence leaders.

Nothing in that list photographs. The design problem is making access feel concrete without overclaiming, at a fee level where the reader will not be rushed.

SYS.02 Creative response

Brochure design and work on the membership proposition itself, the recommendation to build a comprehensive membership brochure came from W'A.I before the brief did.

  • Global membership brochure (October 2025). A PDF built from the live site, structured around the membership tiers
  • Membership and sponsorship brochure (February 2026). The second edition, extending into sponsorship
  • A CES slide deck (January 2026). Existing content converted into a presentation format
  • Proposition work. Recommendations on what the brochure had to carry: CES's position in economic security, exclusive access, evidence from current members, and a clear return at each tier

Selling a room

Access is the hardest thing to put in a brochure and the reason people join.

If this looks close to something you are dealing with, the quickest route is to say so in a sentence. You will get a real reply from a person, usually with a first read on the problem rather than a calendar link.
