<p class="MsoNormal">Happy New Year. Just following up on our emails from late last year.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are still planning a trip to Perth in May, during the week of the 5<sup>th</sup> to the 12<sup>th</sup>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On the trip will be our team of 4:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m still keen on giving at talk at UWA with the support of UCC. My suggestion would be a 1-2 hour long session, including a 30 minute talk from myself talking a little bit about the company, but more importantly talking about what goes
into founding a business/startup in Australia, building a product, managing open-source and commercial responsibilities and the challenges on moving from a developer to a business role. Introductions from the team, and then a Q&A with the whole team. The Q&A
would be useful as I think everyone here has a different perspective on their roles in the company, as well a range of experiences.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The aim would be to give a bit of an overview in the realities of making or working for a startup.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’d also be happy to sponsor some pizzas and beer (or other catering) for the event as well to help generate interest.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If there is still interest, we’ll start build some bios to help you when talking about the event, and we’d be happy to provide some guidance on things we’ve found useful when holding events like this. If you have any questions either Lauren
or I would be happy to help.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Sam, <span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-AU"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p>Thanks for getting in touch.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>It would be absolutely fantastic if you were able to present a talk, and UCC will be very happy to help organise whatever scale of event you had in mind.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>We have been hoping to host a series of tech talks and workshops on various topics during next semester (March to June 2019) but at this stage we haven't discussed any details. We will make sure to keep you in the loop regarding planning these events.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Look forward to hearing from you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Best regards,<br>
Felix von Perger [FVP]<br>
UCC President<o:p></o:p></p>
