Discussion Page

I am building a potential list of sponsors and readying to reach out to
them for preliminary invitations. I would very much appreciate learning
from previous SOTM activities about this. On my list so far:

Development NGOs using GIS
GIS Tech, Survey, Software companies
GIS Stats and Development within Government
Universities with GIS curriculum

Do other chapters have outreach plans in place for the conference? Can I
learn something from others about reaching out to schools and
organizations, inviting them to the conference?

I created a talk page  to discuss these questions and more:

Thank you for your ideas and feedback!  The notes from the chat were MOST
helpful. I really really really appreciated being able to read those.

Kate, feel free to give me a call if you'd like to match up on anything (
081281776145). I almost called you this morning in my state of excitement,
but realized it was 6AM and that it would be rude.  Stay in touch!

Alex
