<p>Dear OSGeo-team,</p>
<p>I'm writing to you because we think OSGeo might be interested
in our conference <a href="https://24.foss-backstage.de/" target="_blank">FOSS Backstage 2024</a>. The event will
take place in Berlin & online on March 4th and 5th.<br>
</p>
<p>FOSS Backstage deals with community, management &
compliance in free and open source software development. It
offers a platform to discuss all non-coding aspects of running a
successful and sustainable FOSS project. </p>
<p>Last week we published our <a href="https://24.foss-backstage.de/#call-for-papers" target="_blank">Call for Papers</a>. We are looking for
talks which educate others on the best practices in Governance
& Community, Sustainability & Funding, Legal &
Compliance, Diversity & Inclusion as well as Growing Open
Source and Security.<br>
Please feel free to submit a talk <a href="https://program.foss-backstage.de/fossback24/cfp" target="_blank">here</a> and tell your colleagues and
network. We'd appreciate submissions from anyone at OSGeo.<br>
</p>
<p>The goal of FOSS Backstage is to connect members of different
communities across projects and companies to discuss shared
issues, best practices and visions to improve free and open
source software development. Of course it's also a great place
to network with industry experts and fellow Open Source
enthusiasts.<br>
If you want to join us as an attendee, make sure to check out
our <a href="https://24.foss-backstage.de/#tickets" target="_blank">ticket shop</a> while the CfP is still
running and get a discounted early bird ticket.</p>
<p>Anyone looking for opportunities to raise brand awareness,
support FOSS communities or present themself to an audience of
FOSS experts, can reach out to <a href="mailto:partner@foss-backstage.de" target="_blank">partner@foss-backstage.de</a>
to learn more about sponsorship options. We offer solutions for
every budget and goal.</p>
<p>We are very excited for the 6th edition of FOSS Backstage and
would be happy to welcome participants from OSGeo!</p>
<p>If you want to support us, you can do so by spreading the word
on our Call for Papers and following us on <a href="https://floss.social/@FOSSBackstage" target="_blank">Mastodon</a> or <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/foss-backstage" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>. <br>

<p>Best regards from Berlin,<br>
Alex<br>
