Currently, there are 7 constituencies that make up ICANN. For most people in this forum, they'd want to be in the Business Constituency. (as opposed to registries, registrars, Intellectual Property, non-commercial, etc.).
The Business Constituency currently has only about 50 members, as the costs are about $1,500 per year to join. There's a small business category, for firms with sales under $500,000 per year, and their fee is $250, which is probably an obstacle to a lot of small firms interested in ICANN policies. Their website is at:

So, my question is, if the fee was lowered to say $50 per year, would you join? Please comment in this thread, if you're interested in making the "small business" aspect of the Business Constituency of ICANN more active and vibrant, so that our voices resonate.
