[Foss4ga.discuss] Letter of Intent for hosting FOSS4G Asia 2020 in Seoul
by Sanghee Shin 15 Nov '19

15 Nov '19

Dear Conference Committee Members of FOSS4G Asia, On behalf of OSGeo Korean Chapter, Iâm very pleased to submit this LOI for hosting FOSS4G Asia 2020 in Seoul. Date: 19~21st August 2020 Venue: COEX, Seoul [1] Main Organizer: OSGeo Korean Chapter, Smart Geo Expo Organizing Committee Weâd like to host FOSS4G Asia 2020 in conjunction with Smart Geo Expo 2020[2], one of the largest Geospatial Trade Fair and Conference in Asia. By doing this we can reduce cost and increase opportunities for FOSS4G Asia attendees. At first FOSS4G Asia attendees could experience many programs of Smart Geo Expo 2020 at free and could learn various aspects of geospatial businesses other than open source. Second, we could promote our open source GIS itself to numerous delegates of Smart Geo Expo 2020. OSGeo Korean Chapter and Smart Geo Expo Organizing Committee have already exchanged this co-hosting idea and both side believe hosting FOSS4G Asia 2020 in Seoul could give very unique experiences to all the attendees of FOSS4G Asia and Smart Geo Expo 2020. Best regards, ì ìí¬ --- Shin, Sanghee Gaia3D, Inc. - The GeoSpatial Company www.gaia3d.com [1] https://www.coexcenter.com [2] https://smartgeoexpo.kr/fairDash.do?hl=ENG
