In 2018 we put together the first FOSS4G SotM Oceania which was an overwhelming success with 250 people attending. Building upon this, we have created the entity OSGeo Oceania to support future conferences, improve participation, and elicit new perspectives. I'm currently leading sponsorship efforts for FOSS4G SotM Oceania 2019 in Wellington. |
