During ICANN91, the International Conference on Artificial
Neural Networks, held in Helsinki, June 24-28, 1991, ENNS,
the European Neural Network Society has been created.
 
Its main objectives are to sponsor furture ICANN conferences
and organize summer schools in the area, and to develop a
quarterly newsletter and electronic bulletin board that will
keep members informed of developments in the field of
artificial and biological neural networks.   It is expected
that Special Interest Groups will be formed in the future
under the umbrella of the society.
 
The new society welcomes membership worldwide from those
interested in Neural Network research.  One of the benefits
will be de reduction of fees for all future activities of
the society.
