Corporation BAC: Election for Large Businesses’ Delegate

EC Election Committee Public Seen by 101

Select the Large Businesses’ Delegate for the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) of the OpenSSL Corporation. This advisory is important in enhancing our governance structure, ensuring that decisions reflect the diverse stakeholders involved and that our Mission and Values remain aligned with the community’s needs.

Only one vote per business will be counted, regardless of the number of individuals participating. If multiple votes are cast by a business for different candidates, the candidate with the highest number of votes will be deemed the business’s choice. This approach ensures equal representation across all groups and fairness in the decision-making process.

Your participation is essential in shaping OpenSSL’s future and ensuring that the voice of the businesses is effectively represented.
