FOSS4G-BE 2015 Call for Sponsors
FOSS4G Belgium 2015
After different successful events, such as OSGeo Ghent (2013), beOpenGIS (2014) and the geospatial devroom at FOSDEM (2015), the Dutch speaking and French speaking Open GIS communities in Belgium have decided to join their forces in a Belgian chapter of the OSGEO foundation and to organise the first FOSS4G Belgium.
The event will be hosted in Brussels at environment.brussels, The Environment and Energy Agency of the Brussels Capital Region. The date will be 29 October 2015.
The goal of the conference is to target a broad audience. Apart from a plenary session there will be place for interactive workshops and debates, both in English and in the major official languages of Belgium: Dutch and French.
We are looking for sponsors who want to support this event.
