Support, and thanks to Ola for volunteering to do this event. 

Ola, do you need some supporting materials for the event? 

We used to do two page fact sheets for special events. 

I am not sure that the last Newsletter is really useful for this kind of event. 

We have a little time and we could collaborate on a special two page fact sheet. 

Also, will you need a PowerPoint presentation that describes the BC and ICANN? 

We probably don't have a current one, but if we need to help with this, I can 

spend some time next week on a few ideas for a short PP. 

Who is ICANN, where did it come from/ who participates, why business cares kind of stuff?

How to get engaged? What the BC works on? 

Congratulations on your speaking role! 

Marilyn

Ola,

Thanks for your request and for the follow up detail.  Based on this, my vote is that the Outreach Committee approve this effort.   

Can all Outreach Committee members please weigh in the next few days so we can get this sorted out.

Regards, Andrew

Dear Outreach Committee Members,

 

The above mentioned Summit refers.

Innovation Africa Digital Summit is organized by Extensia Ltd., in partnership with the Ministry of ICT and National Guidance and the Uganda Communications Commission. I have been invited as a VIP Delegate, with the opportunity to give a short presentation and speak during the programme. It is my judgement that this opportunity can be used to reach out to business delegates for possible BC membership as I network and distribute BC Newsletters and complimentary cards at the event.

I thus request for One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500) part sponsorship for my participation on behalf of BC. I project that that we could have between 2 and 3 new members joining the BC through this outreach.

Attached is a copy of my invitation letter to the event as I look forward to your response.

 

Kind regards
