The more members Validos has, the more useful the co-operation is for its members. That’s why we are always open for new companies and organizations.
The main membership benefits are:
- Access to the Validos knowledge base (the validation results and use instructions for open source software packages, other materials for e.g. policy development)
- Possibility to order validation work (the membership fee contains a minimum amount of work which can be flexibly used during a six months' period)
- Access to Validos member meetings: the members discuss, for example, matters relating to Validos and open source compliance in general
- Membership can be terminated at any time
The membership fee is based on the turnover of the company and includes an amount of compliance work available for use during a six-month period. This way, each member contributes to the knowledge base at the heart of the co-operation. The membership fees are the following:
| Annual turnover (MEUR) | Validation work per 6 months (minimum) | Membership fee per month (excl. VAT) |
|---|---|---|
| 0–2 | 1 hour | €60 |
| 2–10 | 0.5 days | €100 |
| 10–100 | 0.75 days | €170 |
| 100+ | 3 days | €440 |
Value-added tax is added to membership fees as applicable. Affiliate companies of members in the highest turnover category are entitled to all benefits of the membership.
