Dear list,
Peter Löwe indicated me the following conference about digital
transformation.
My question: who is planning to register for this conference to
represent OSGeo and what should be the message we want to bring there as
a community?
If nobody is planning to go, and we have a clear message to bring, I
would consider to register myself and represent OSGeo and OSGeo Europe,
but therfor I need your support.
Waiting for feedback ...
Deadline is April 18.
Dirk.

Joint conference of the European Parliament and the European Commission
Digital technologies and the ways we use them have reshaped the way we
live and work. They are changing the face of our societies and our
economies with an undiminished speed.
Undoubtedly, the digital transformation offers enormous opportunities
for well-being, growth and sustainable development, but it also raises
important challenges and risks. The European Parliament and the European
Commission are seeking to shape the technological revolution in order to
maximise the benefits for Europe and minimise the risks. To this end, an
integrated and comprehensive policy response is needed. Under the
current political mandate, the three institutions are discussing an
ambitious set of proposals for an effective Digital Single Market
Strategy to support a successful digital transformation across Europe.
Against this background, we are pleased to announce that the European
Parliament will organise, in close cooperation with the European
Commission, a high-level conference on “Shaping our digital future: the
challenge of the digital revolution” in Brussels, Belgium, on 25 April
2018. After the opening session, hosted by the President of the European
Parliament, Antonio Tajani and the European Commissioner for the Digital
Economy and Society, Mariya Gabriel, the conference will be structured
around four themes:
1. Investing to Unlock Digitalisation and Avoiding a Digital Divide
2. Innovation in the Digital Age
3. Opportunities for European Consumers in a Digital Society
4. A Digital Single Market without Barriers for European Businesses
Discover the full programme and register now to join this high-level
event on a matter of utmost importance to our citizens and businesses.
