Dear Project Management Committee,
The Beam Summits are community events funded by a Sponsoring Committee and organized by an Organizing Committee. I’d like to get the following approvals: To organize and host the Summits under the name of Beam Summit <region> <year>, i.e. Beam Summit North America 2019, Beam Summit Europe 2019 and Beam Summit Asia 2019. To form organizing committees for each edition Approval to host each edition on the following dates and locations: Beam Summit North America, on April 3rd, San Francisco, CA. (150 attendees) Beam Summit Europe, on June 19th, Berlin, Germany. (150 attendees) Beam Summit Asia, October (exact date tbc), Tokyo, Japan. (150 attendees) The events will provide educational content selected by the Organizing Committee, and will be a not-for-profit event, however, we might charge a fee to support the organization and logistics costs. This matter will be decided by the Organizing Committee and will be brought back to the PMC if needed. The events will be advertised on various channels, including the Apache Beam’s and Summit sponsor’s social media accounts. The Organizing Committee will acknowledge the Apache Software Foundation's ownership of the Apache Beam trademark and will add attribution required by the foundation’s policy on all marketing channels. The Apache Beam branding will be used in accordance with the foundation’s trademark and events policies specifically as outlined in Third Party Event Branding Policy. The Organizing Committee does not request the ASF to become a Community Partner of the event. Please feel free to request further information if needed. Kind Regards, Joana Carrasqueira
