Dear [invitee name],
We are pleased to invite you to be one of the keynote speakers for g0v Summit 2016, scheduled at May 14-15, 2016 in Taipei, Taiwan. The other keynote speaker of the conference will be Felipe Heusser, co-founder and former Director of the Chile-based civic tech organization Ciudadano Inteligente.
g0v is a civic tech community established in late 2012 with deep open-source roots. With 1,000+ contributors through 30+ hackathons, it is recognized as one of the largest group in the global civic tech community. The results are many civic-made tools for better information disclosure, citizen engagement, and online democracy. g0v community is one of the major driving forces for official adoption of better Open Data practices in Taiwan, whose achievement is recognized by OKFN in their 2015 survey.
g0v Summit 2014 had 43 speakers from 9 countries with diverse backgrounds, including Open Data evangelists, public servants, NPO/NGO workers, scholars, and entrepreneurs.
As the global civic tech communities continue to do exciting things to accelerate political changes, we’d like to invite you to share your thoughts and vision of the future, and to celebrate some of the small successes and stories with the attendees. We are expecting 750 participants in 2016.
Please let us know if this would be of interest to you. Kindly reply to the conference Program Chief, Mr. Pomin Wu, at <pomin5@gmail.com>.
Sincerely,
Pomin Wu, Program Chief
