Online Exceptional General Assembly - 9th November 2024

Dear IKS Friends,

As we informed you at the repeated online General Assembly in August and in its Minutes, a third member for the Election Committee 2025 was missing.
The Board requested Kata Körtvési and she accepted to become a member and the chair of the Election Committee 2025. Her appointment needs the approval of the Membership.

To this end, an online Exceptional General Assembly will be held on 9 November 2024 where this will be the only item on the agenda. You can cast your vote via an online voting system. The system will be open on 3 November 2024 and close on 9 November 2024.

Only members in good standing will receive the link on 3 November from the IKS Office. If you do not receive the link, please contact the IKS Office.

If the number of participants is less than the majority (the half+1) of paid-up members, another voting will be held between 10 and 11 November 2024 (Repeated online Exceptional General Assembly).
In that case, the result is valid without having the majority.


We kindly ask you to participate in the voting until 9 November. Thank you.


Kind regards,

Krisztina Molnár-Litvai
Executive Secretary
