[OSGeo-Discuss] UNGGIM Private Sector

[Suchith Anand]

Thanks Marc. I am trying to think ideas to make sure that OSGeo is involved in all levels at all different forums for maximising impact. We are very active in the UNGGIM Academic Network (thanks to Maria).

We need to be more active in regional networks in UNGGIM and spread our ideas.We need champions to spread ideas in UNGGIM Private Sector and the main way to do this is to join these networks . As far as I am aware they are free to join at  http://unggim-psn.org/psn-members.html


Best wishes,


Suchith

Thx Suchith,

However I struggle to see the opportunities for SME’s in particular. Especially, since these make up for the large part of the present OSGeo sponsors.
I think the argument to join the initiative needs to be SMART. Otherwise it is a plea in a virtual ocean of requests upon open source businesses.
Apologies, but I can not bolster the argument for joining. Perhaps others on the list can help you.

Kind regards,
Marc Vloemans

Hi Marc,


I do not have any expertise in this but seeing all the companies who have joined this already ( including many proprietary GIS companies),  it is important that SMEs in the OSGeo ecosytem should be part of this to make sure there is balance of opportunities for everyone.


Best wishes,


Suchith

Hi Suchith,

What would be the business value of joining as an SME or other (commercial) company?

Kind regards,
Marc Vloemans

I was looking at UNGGIM Private Sector website and I didn’t much  presence of commercial sector in the OSGeo ecosystem in the UNGGIM Private Sector Network.

There are lot of SMEs in the OSGeo ecosystem and I think this will be a good opportunity for the commercial sector in the OSGeo ecosystem [2] to join this network  at http://unggim-psn.org/psn-members.html  and proactively engage with UNGGIM Private Sector

Best wishes,

Suchith
