<br>
It is with great honor and joy that we announce that the registration <br>
for FOSS4G 2019 Bucharest is open [1]! And more..<br>
<br>
We promised to do our best to make this global FOSS4G the most <br>
affordable of all times and we kept our word. Joining the geospatial <br>
international community for one week packed with dynamic, valuable, <br>
timely events in a vibrant European capital city is more at hand than <br>
ever before. The EarlyBird for FOSS4G 2019 Bucharest is at the <br>
historical level of 330 EUR and it offers you everything you could ever <br>
need for such a tech gathering:<br>
<br>
- Access to plenary session (28- 30 august)<br>
- Access to conference tracks (28- 30 august)<br>
- Access to 300+ talks<br>
- Access to mobile app<br>
- Ability to contact attendees<br>
- Access to Ice Breaker Party (29 august)<br>
- Access to Gala Dinner (29 august)<br>
- Access to Pub Race Offers (28-30 august)<br>
- Access to Academic papers post event<br>
- Access to presentations post event<br>
- Conference kit<br>
- Email support<br>
<br>
The #historicalearlybird registration is coupled with the unbelievable <br>
accessible accommodation and traveling expenses. Bucharest is a <br>
significant European traffic node and one of the low-cost favorite <br>
destination points, more than 70 airports have direct connections [2] <br>
with Bucharest Henri Coandă International Airport (also check our CARTO <br>
interactive map with estimated prices [3]). Browsing through the <br>
accommodation page on the FOSS4G 2019 website [4], you’ll find all <br>
types, ranging from a wonderful downtown hostel with a sky bar to city <br>
center 5* hotels, we have special negotiated deals for any taste and <br>
wallet. Please be aware that, due to high demand, the special prices are <br>
available only until the end of January.<br>
<br>
Not convinced yet? To show our appreciation for our early participants, <br>
we have prepared 100 special T-shirts for the first 100 registered <br>
participants. Not convinced yet? Be among the first 100, and you will <br>
also receive the Romanian Curios Passport. Curious? Be among the first <br>
100 registered participants.<br>
<br>
No FOSS4G would be possible without the valuable input of sponsors. They <br>
are the conference’s backbone contributing to the values, principles and <br>
progress of our community. Support us in our work to organize FOSS4G2019 <br>
Bucharest as one of the most memorable FOSS4G events. The call for <br>
sponsors is now open. Please, take a look at our suggestions [5] and <br>
find the one that best suits your needs and preferences.<br>
<br>
Sponsoring is not yet possible but you want to actively contribute to <br>
the success of FOSS4G 2019 Bucharest? Become a volunteer! Besides <br>
valuable input in making FOSS4G 2019 happen, you will receive a free <br>
ticket to the conference (including the ice breaker and gala dinner). <br>
Interested [6]?<br>
<br>
Sponsorship is not for you, neither volunteering but you still want to <br>
help FOSS4G 2019, then Spread the Word [7]!<br>
<br>
Yet of course, traveling to a FOSS4G is meeting the geospatial gurus, <br>
old friends and collaborators, making new friends, finding new <br>
opportunities and presenting your own work. Within the next week, <br>
another important call will open, the Call for Papers and Workshops. The <br>
committees are almost fully formed and ready for action. We are honored <br>
to say that the FOSS4G 2019 program will be shaped by remarkable people <br>
in the geospatial international community. Check out the Committee <br>
webpage [8] to see who will review your FOSS4G 2019 contribution.<br>
<br>
In the weeks to come, important steps will follow, as opening the call <br>
for academic papers, announcing keynote speakers, so stay tuned <br>
[9][10][11]! We promise our #historicalearlybird will prove to be even <br>
more convincing, as FOSS4G2019 Bucharest wheels turn.<br>
<br>
With hope to see you all here in Bucharest, best wishes for a Happy New <br>
Year!<br>
FOSS4G 2019 Bucharest team<br>
