Jonathan,
Thanks for the info.
Am I right that the registration covers both the summit and the PTG?

Subject: [Foundation Board] Shanghai Summit Information
Hi everyone,
Hopefully you have seen that the Open Infrastructure Summit and Project Teams Gathering (PTG) is heading to Shanghai in November!
We are excited to take the Summit to mainland China for the first time, and appreciate your organization’s support to make it a great week! In order to create a successful event, we wanted to share some of the changes we have incorporated:
·
·
The
·
CFP (which is currently open until July 2nd) is accepting sessions in both English and Chinese. Onsite, sessions will be presented in English and Mandarin. Simultaneous
interpretation will be available for the keynotes; breakout session interpretation may
·
be available pending submitted content.
·
·
·
There
·
are two registration options available - one in USD and one in RMB. Attendees have the ability to purchase tickets in the currency they prefer and receive an e-fapiao
(chinese tax) receipt with RMB purchases.
·
·
·
We
·
have worked hard to lower ticket prices as much as possible upon receiving feedback from local community members. To keep prices as low as 1499 RMB/$231 USD (early
bird), we are also offering VIP tickets for those that can afford it. VIP includes a reception
·
and, most importantly, makes the regular price accessible for local community members in China.
·
·
·
5G
·
was added to the NFV & Edge Computing track due to the overwhelming demand in the open infrastructure landscape by both operators and vendors.
·
·
·
We
·
added a new top level sponsorship called the Diamond level, which sold out the first day of sales. Thank you Intel and Tencent for being the first ever Diamond sponsors!
An updated sponsorship prospectus with new sponsorship opportunities is now available
·
on the Summit website at the link below.
