Hi Bret -
Not to discourage recruitment (!) but rather just for a bit of perspective from my role here...
I have *never* seen a TC launch with this many members. More common is 10 to 20. Very few TCs have ever had this kind of interest or involvement. (Of course, very few TCs deal with a topic as pressing as CTI either.)
Also, having just 1 or 2 people from any member company in a TC is common.
That said, Carol and Robin are continuing to investigate and recruit and are happy to work with you to target potential players. Feel free to get in touch with them with any ideas that you have.
I agree with you about vendors but I think we have some of them in the works.

I am really surprised that we do not have more support from vendors.
Thanks,
