Member Renewal Requalification

Revenue Verification Form

Revenue Verification Criteria

  • EO Membership must meet the revenue criteria requirement of $1.35 AUD   

  • EO Accelerator must meet the revenue criteria requirement of $325,000  AUD


Requalification Exemption 

The following members are exempt from submitting a Revenue Verification Form:

  • Members who have been approved for a Grace Period.*

  • Members who have previously sold their business.**

  • Members who have been in EO for 10+ years.

  • Members who joined EO in the current fiscal year (FY25).

*Grace Period Application (EO Members): Should your business's revenue fall below the $$1.35M threshold, you have the option to request a grace period. For those who have already completed their initial grace period, an extended grace period can be considered. To apply for a Grace Period, contact support@eonetwork.org.au  

  • For members with 1 to 4 consecutive years of membership in good standing, a waiver of requalification for a 1-year period may be requested.

  • For members with 5 to 10 consecutive years of membership in good standing, a waiver of requalification for up to 2 one-year periods may be requested.

  • If a renewing member no longer meets the eligibility requirements, EO Sydney may, at its sole discretion, renew such membership for a 1-year grace period.

**Sold Business (EO Members): Members who have sold their business, regardless of the sale price, are eligible to remain EO members indefinitely. To formalise this, we require a signed letter from your accountant confirming the sale of your business, which we will retain for future renewal periods.

FAQ’s

  • Yes, for global fees. To avoid late fees, please ensure you renew your membership before the end of EO’s fiscal year on 30 June. EO will consider members who have not renewed by the start of the new fiscal year as EO Elumni. 

    Elumni, if returning to EO within 12 months of membership expiration, may continue their membership in good standing by renewing with a late fee of US$400. Such returning Elumni will be considered ‘late renewals’. 

    Full annual dues (set at the time) are applicable for late renewing Elumni, irrespective of the month of return. 

  • Not this year. However, we haven’t increased fees to make it as affordable as possible for all members. 

  • You'll need to submit your revenue form as required unless you meet the exception criteria. Exemption criteria include: 

    • Joining EO after 1 July 2024 

    • 10+ years of membership 

    • Previously submitted a Sold Business Form 

    If you don’t meet the revenue criteria, you may be eligible for a grace period please contact support@eonetwork.org.au to discuss your options.
