Global Industry Committee

Mission Statement
The Global Industry Committee was created during the OWASP EU Summit in Portugal. '''The OWASP Global Industry Committee (GIC) shall expand awareness of and promote the inclusion of software security best practices in Industry, Government, Academia and regulatory agencies and be a voice for industry. This will be accomplished through outreach; including presentations, development of position papers and collaborative efforts with other entities.'''
 * Currently open for discussion and pending GIC approval: The committee is governed by the Global Industry Committee Governance document.

Committee Plan
Step 1: Identify specific organizations worth working with to spread the OWASP gospel

Step 2: Prioritize the proposed liaisons based on potential impact, and also realistic likelihood of the organization actively working with us

Step 3: Execute, leveraging global OWASP resources as much as possible to maximize impact

Step 4: Evaluate progress &amp; repeat Step 1-3
