Membership benefits and options
Membership offers a structured way to collaborate on CHERI technology, software, standards, education and adoption.
Is membership the right route?
Membership offers a structured way to collaborate on CHERI technology, software, standards, education and adoption. The strongest benefit is participation: access to peers and working groups is most valuable when a member brings a real use case, evidence or engineering capacity.
Where membership creates value
Prospective members should compare the effort they can contribute and the outcomes they need with the current membership terms, fees and participation routes.
Benefits through participation
1. Technical access
Working groups can provide earlier context on ecosystem problems and a route to align tooling, software and implementation practice.
2. Visibility and connection
Members can connect with organisations across the stack and demonstrate sustained engagement with hardware-supported memory safety.
3. Influence through work
Members shape useful outputs by contributing requirements, review, testing, documentation and implementation effort.
Before applying
Benefits are not automatic guarantees of product support, certification, procurement success or access to confidential work. Verify the current membership agreement.
