During the yearly congress in Dublin a new Honorary member will be presented at the General Assembly.
Corporate Members
Companies joining the ESB as Corporate members are giving a valuable financial support. This for instance enables the ESB to provide more travel grants for students to attend the yearly meeting, allowed creating the Mobility Awards, and new Corporate-sponsored best paper awards.

How to pay the ESB yearly membership fee?
In order to avoid any confusion regarding the payment of the ESB membership fee, we would like to remind you the following:
- If you attend the WCB in Dublin in July, please remember to indicate you are affiliated with the ESB when you register. This way, your WCB registration will automatically cover ESB membership for year 2019.
- If you do not attend the annual ESB congress (or the WCB, this year), your membership will elapse at the end of the current year (2018). For the following year you will be required to pay your annual membership fee online.
- Members who allow their membership to lapse by not paying their membership fee for 2 consecutive years (i.e. neither paying online, nor by attending the annual ESB congress) will be maintained within the membership database for a period of 2 years, under the status of “resigned”.
For more details about membership payment rules, please visit the dedicated page.
To update/check your membership profile and fee payments, you just need to loginin the ESB website and follow the link to the online payment page, on the right. The ESB website has been redesigned recently, but you can still login with your email address (the one you used to register for the ESB) and old password.
