Tim started his career by working in Nature Conservation in South Africa. Some years later, around 1998, an opening in the newly formed GIS group in the organisation where he worked presented an opportunity to combine his love of the environment with his enthusiasm for computers. What followed quickly became a deep dive into GIS (including obtaining a Master's Degree in GIS and Environmental Studies) and Open Source. He discovered Linux, also around 1998, and became an ardent fan of using and creating Open Source software. The announcement of the first release of QGIS in 2002 was another key milestone, with Tim quickly becoming deeply involved in the development of QGIS, as well as helping to build the community platforms and governance structures around the project. Formerly the QGIS.org Board Chair, Tim was awarded perpetual Honorary QGIS PSC Member status in 2018 and continues to play an active role in many aspects of the QGIS project. Tim is also engaged in the broader Open Source GIS ecosystem, including having the honour of being an OSGEO Charter Member and promoting the wide array of world-changing Open Source GIS tools provided under the OSGEO umbrella (and beyond) to pretty much anyone who will listen.
Recognising the need for professional services around the Open Source GIS ecosystem, Tim started his own company, Linfiniti, in 2008. Through a merger with Afrispatial, Tim co-founded Kartoza (https://kartoza.com) in 2014. The company helps Tim to achieve his personal vision of making spatial decision-making tools broadly available to everyone so that we can responsibly manage our precious earth and properly serve the societies that inhabit it. Today Tim's work at Kartoza focuses mainly on humanitarian, social upliftment, and environmental projects. Kartoza as a whole uses its skills in software development, consulting, training, and applied GIS to support customers in a broad range of disciplines from creating the building blocks of cloud-native GIS, smart farming, infrastructure management, energy planning and provision, national metadata initiatives, and many more interesting applications.
Two other key OSGEO achievements have been co-chair for the 2008 FOSS4G Conference in Cape Town and on the organising committee for the 2018.
Tina is a remote sensing scientist who uses satellite imagery to gain insights into critical challenges facing society, and open source software is central to the work that she does. She actively promotes open source through talks, community events (e.g., maptime), and social media, and she is now working with the OSGeo-Live project on R quickstarts as well as with the author of the lidR package to improve user friendliness.
Sharing her open source experience has always been a part of her work as well; she has taught workshops in countries all over the world, from Peru to Nepal, as well as in her home country, the USA. Workshop topics have ranged from programming in R and using QGIS, to processing lidar with open source tools. +

Tom is one of the coordinators of the Scottish QGIS User Group and has been running QGIS training and workshops in UK Higher and Further Education since around 2012. Tom was the co-chair for the FOSS4G UK 2019 conference in Edinburgh. Tom is active on twitter and various QGIS user forums helping users find solutions to problems they face. He writes a blog http://learngis.uk which provides step by step guides to doing data visualisation and cartography in QGIS. +
Developer, user and advocate for the adoption of open in the commercial world. OGC Architecture Board member +
Author and maintainer of qgis2web, a QGIS plugin to create webmaps, I have worked for Northumberland National Park Authority for over twelve years, also spending time on secondment managing GIS and web joint working between all the UK National Parks. I have spoken at FOSS4GUK and regional QGIS user groups, and have made several (non-code) contributions to QGIS. I oversaw the migration of Northumberland National Park Authority from proprietary GIS to open source, and advocate its use whenever possible. I co-chaired FOSS4GUK 2018. +

Ulrike Assmann is an active member of FOSSGIS e.V (since 2017) and a member of the programm committee since 2020.
She is currently Senior Hydrographic Cartographer in the Hydrographic Office of Germany (BSH).
Ulrike strives to foster greater understanding and acceptance of FOSS in public administration and to establish the use of open source software. To this goal she conducts feasibility tests, for instance with QGIS and PostGIS, as a power user. Ulrike represents the topic at FOSSGIS e.V. and also at the FOSSGIS Conference. She also networks with the global community at FOSS4G to advance this topic.
Another important concern of her is to improve and lower the barriers to participation for women in the FOSSGIS field. Against this background, she has already organised several Geochicas meetings in connection with the FOSSGIS Conference together with others.
Ulrike received the Nico Rüpke Award (in 2023) for the article "Seekarten mit QGIS – geht das? Machbarkeitsstudie zur Automatisierung der Produktion von A1-Seekarten", published in KN – Journal of Cartography and Geographic Information 3/2023. +
