I've been using Open Source GeoSpatial software since 2003, originally with TAB2TAB. In 2005 I setup Astun Technology with the goal of being the leading Open Source GeoSpatial business in the UK.
Working as part of a wide community of developers and users has enriched Astun, so we want to put something back. Astun is committed to supporting the community whether through sponsorship of the OSGeo Foundation or providing support to local chapters such as OSGeo:UK and the events they organise such as the FOSS4G:UK conference and QGIS User Groups.
I believe that the community needs to be well funded to be sustainable and in 2017 Astun contributed in excess of £10,000 to various Open Source projects as sponsorship and / or funding code development. Astun also contributed over 90 man days of our staff’s time in helping with events, code sprints, hacks and other activities. +

Marie-Lyne Bouthot est titulaire d'un baccalauréat en géomatique appliquée et d'une maîtrise en géographie de l'Université de Sherbrooke. Son expérience professionnelle auprès d'organismes publics et à but non lucratif l'a amenée à développer une expertise centrée sur les technologies libres et à promouvoir une géomatique accessible et adaptative. Forte de son aptitude à l'analyse et à l'abstraction, elle se spécialise dans la conception et la programmation de bases de données et de systèmes de gestion et de diffusion de l'information géographique sur le Web. Consciente que les technologies de l'informatique évoluent à une vitesse exponentielle, elle est toujours à l'affût de nouvelles orientations et outils qui offrent un potentiel géomatique prometteur. Soucieuse d'un travail efficace et précis, elle n'hésite pas à mettre à profit ses aptitudes pour concevoir des outils qui permettront à son équipe et à ses clients d'optimiser leur travail au quotidien. +
After 23 years of activity in geography, GIS and remote sensing, both in academia and in a private company, Moritz has moved to other horizons and now works on social inequalities and their reproduction through school. Even though he now is pretty removed from GIS work, he continues to follow GRASS GIS development and remains available should the need arise. +

I am a programmer and a web developer at the age of 13. I read in a high school of Chittagong city in 7th grade. Recently, I have designed my own school website and now learning machine languages. In future, I want to work with Google to make one of my best dream come true. +
Heather has administered the GIS systems and developed GIS software for a regional watershed management organisation in Germany since 2013, where she cares for about 100 scientists, engineers and field workers. Her fields of application encompass groundwater, stream networks, water treatment and sewage systems.
Heather's introduction to OSGeo and GIS came when she was hired to migrate her organisation from ESRI to QGIS. Through this she has built an expertise in guiding groups into new technologies with minimal disruption and has become a strong advocate for open source GIS. +
Msilikale Msilanga is a spatial planner by professional from Tanzania but have more experiences from Europe and Latin America based on the same field. He has been working at the World Bank since 2011 as the Geospatial consultant before he went to have his Masters for two years. Now he is back at the World Bank supporting the open data team and more mapping projects in Tanzania Zambia and Mozambique. For more than five years, he has been working with the local communities in Dar es salaam helping them to map their own areas using OSM. Through these maps which are mostly in the informal settlements, more issues facing the community has been identified and more projects have been identified one of them being Ramani Huria. He is currently a Co-chair for FOSS4G 2018 which will be conducted in Dar es Salaam in 2018. +

I'm a geographer and I love maps and spatial data. I am one of the coordinators of the Brazilian QGIS User Group where I participate in QGIS translation projects into Portuguese, I am active in social networks to help lusophone users find solutions to the problem they face in QGIS and give training and outreach presentations. FOSS4G tools in universities and research institutions.
I am a member of the Brazilian OpenStreetMap community, where I collaborate with the production of open spatial data in OSM and spreading the importance of open spatial data in the production of scientific knowledge and decision making. I write a blog and have a YouTube channel that provides step by step guides for producing maps and data cartography in QGIS.
Since I participated in FOSS4G Argentina in 2016, I have become more involved with the local communities of Brazil and Latin America, especially Argentina. I am part of the Geocast project, a Brazilian geotechnology channel that brings together several geotechnology professionals. I am ahead of Fortaleza Geoinquietos, a local initiative to build a strong regional geospatial community in northeastern Brazil.
