Five years ago the internet began to revolutionize technology,
communications and the way we do business. Many foresee Open Source as
the next wave of innovation. From the concept of free software, to
collaboration, to the freedom to make technology choices,
Open Source extends the internet revolution beyond its digital bounds.
Come hear knowledgeable experts discuss the impact of Open Source, some
of the key changes and contributions that are coming, and how you can
best participate in this next wave.
This evening will be the first opportunity to learn about the business
and technical aspects of Open Source and network with your peers,
industry leaders and other like-minded individuals. Plus, 20 of you will
have 1-minute with the microphone to announce who you are and what you
are looking for! All pre-registered members can elect to be included in
a list of attendees that will be made available as a handout at the
event.
To be included in this list, please send your name and a 50-word (or
less) description of who you are and what you're looking for to
karen@sdforum.org by February 16.
