[Suchith Anand]

Dear All,

In line with OSGeo's renewed vision to "Empower everyone with open source geospatial", we seek to promote our activity not only though the hosting of events such as the FOSS4G, but also proactively engage with the broader Geospatial Community in various forums . In line with this vision, OSGeo has joined Geospatial World Forum (GWF) [1] as Supporting Organization.

The conference will take place in Rotterdam 23 - 26, May 2016. As OSGeo we will have the chance to present our multifaceted activities and initiatives we support. We are very exited to have this opportunity showcase OSGeo projects to the participants of GWF. As an inclusive software foundation, we attach great important to be present at tech events like GWF and enhance our global impact and reach.

OSGeo will organise a full day event on May 24 and wishes to initiate a call for presenters promote our projects and core values. Volunteers can contact Dirk Frigne, Vice-President, OSGeo Foundation to help organise the session. OSGeo will also be have a booth at the exhibition special 1 day pass for access to the exhibition area and OSGeo Session will be 25Euros.

Dirk has kindly allocated Geo4All a presentation slot for this OSGeo session on May 24th [2],[3] and has contacted me. I wont be able to attend GWF this year. I would like to know if anyone from our community are planning to attend GWF 2016. If so, could you please let myself and Dirk (cc in) know if you will be able to present Geo4All. I can get the latest presentation slides emailed to you. I also request those planning to be at OSGeo booth to also share Geo4All ideas and principles.

Best wishes,

Suchith
