Currently ASPIRE Connect only accommodates pre-registered accounts.

As a member of an ASPIRE Group, you have access to your Group’s pages on ASPIRE Connect. These include a directory of group members, a resource library, an events calendar, a forum and a messaging service.

Please note, your profile is pre-populated with your name, company name and job title. We have also pre-loaded a profile photo. 

You are able to edit your profile. However, it is against the rules to impersonate someone else or claim to be from a company you don’t belong to.

ASPIRE Member Company:

Each ASPIRE Member Company also has its own profile on ASPIRE Connect.

Companies may use their profile to post updates on what is happening in their company, open and engage in discussions, post events, send messages and connect with and follow others.
