[openstack-community] OpenStack Days East Looking for Sponsors & Leads!
by Haisam Ido 26 Jan '17

26 Jan '17

Dear OpenStack Users, Operators, and Community, We are excited to announce that OpenStack Days <https://www.openstack.org/community/events/openstackdays/> East 2017 will be in the city of Washington, DC, with the tentative dates of Aug 15-16, 2017, which are flexible. The two day event will have a focus on the Government sector, amongst many others, such as containerization, DevOps practices, provisioning, orchestration and more. OpenStackDC <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStackDC/>, OpenStack-Northern Virginia <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Nova/>, OpenStack-Baltimore <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Baltimore/>, VA OpenStack Users <https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4762393/>, and several other east coast OpenStack groups will be organizing the OpenStack Days East 2017 event. In order to proceed in earnest, with the planning, we are soliciting a tentative sponsorship commitment from your company for this event. Last year’s sponsorship costs can be found here <https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B28O7k5mIZSiODN6enZROU1EV1lBeE91ekNmbmIxT…>, which may differ in 2017. All sponsorship levels are currently available for 2017. If your company is interested in sponsoring this conference, please fill out this form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdwu6FpGIQ6zis-F99E_oWMdWJ8olXKyp5…>. Also, please keep in mind that this initial sponsorship step only requires a contact name and an email address from your company. One pivotal element which is necessary in order to ensure the timeliness, and success of this event is to find a corporate lead. We are seeking a company or companies that are willing to engage with the OpenStack Days East organizers, volunteers and committee members to co-plan the event, and help with the initial seed funding required to reserve a venue, and several other essentials required for a successful event. If you are interested please contact us immediately via email, and fill out this form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdwu6FpGIQ6zis-F99E_oWMdWJ8olXKyp5…>. As you know OpenStack Days East <http://www.openstackeast.com/>, in NYC <http://www.openstackeast.com/location/> last year, was a resounding success. Some of the companies that sponsored the 2016 event were HP Enterprise, Red Hat, SUSE, Canonical, Dell, and IBM. The full list of 2016 sponsors can be found here <http://www.openstackeast.com/sponsors/>. We look forward to hearing back from you soon. Thank you very much in advance. Thank you very much in advance and we look forward to working with you. Best Regards, Haisam Ido <https://groups.openstack.org/users/haisam-ido>, OpenStackDC <https://groups.openstack.org/groups/dc-washington-dc> Organizer Shilla Saebi <https://www.openstack.org/community/speakers/profile/148>, OpenStack-Northern Virginia <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Nova/> Organizer James Genus <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Baltimore/members/146903662/> Jr., OpenStack-Baltimore <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Baltimore/> Organizer Trevor Lowing <https://www.linkedin.com/in/trevorlowing>, VA OpenStack Users <https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4762393/> Organizer

[openstack-community] SnowCamp, a French IT conference in Grenoble
by Sylvain Bauza 02 Nov '16

02 Nov '16

Hello, A bit off-topic, but I'd like to raise the number of talks around OpenStack we could get for a French (but with 30% of talks English-spoken) tech conference in Grenoble which is named SnowCamp. The CFP is open until Nov 15th at https://snowcamp.cfp.io/ That conference will be held on February 8th, 9th and 10th at the Grenoble university campus and targets to get 300 participants. More details can be found on http://snowcamp.io/ A speaker well known by you should be keynoting at that conference, but let's keep surprises :-) -Sylvain
