[Geo4All] [*Correo Sospechoso*] [Local-chapters] Fwd: OSGeo UK letter of support?

[SERGIO ACOSTAYLARA]

I would say "Yes" but maybe it is better to have the opinion of someone else from GeoForAll (in cc) since it has to do with Education.

Hello Local Chapter Chairs & anyone who might know,

I've been asked whether I (as OSGeo:UK Chair) / we (as OSGeo:UK) can write a letter of support for a UK University of a research bid?

There are a few details below, and I wondered what other local chapters did. My inclination is to say yes. The people/group are very good and know what they are doing, and have done work in open source software before.

What do you think? Any comments (including 'I don't know'!) are welcome :-)

Best wishes,
Nick.

Hi Nick

<snip>

I have a rather random question for you with your OSGeo hat on .. do OS Geo offer letters of support for research bids ?   UCL are putting in a bid for a  5-year Digital Twins Research Network+, to bring together communities of researchers and industry /government partners involved in Digital Twins from all across the UK.  The aim of the network will be to provide policy guidance, set a longer term research plan for what the UK needs to develop leadership in this area, identify skills gaps and how to fill them, and look at ethics, data security, human integration, environmental sustainability and much more, and we’d like to involve people with all levels of Digital Twins skills – from ‘no idea what this is’ to ‘I’m an expert’

Of course, open source software would be key to long term success in the area,  hence the question about the letter of support.  The actual support could simply be publicising activities around the UK and international network, or could be hosting/organising training, or participating in workshops and much more.

Happy to provide more details – and a template letter if helpful – if this is something that could be supported?

Best regards
