 | |
| The OpenPOWER Foundation has decided to pivot from our single day “OpenPOWER Summit” event to a webinar series.  
 | |
| 
 | |
| The benefits of this new format are as follows:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Flexible format
 | |
| - Expanded engagement
 | |
| - Increased cadence 
 | |
| - Community driven topics
 | |
| 
 | |
| Over the last month, I have been speaking with members of our community and our Board about the OPF Summit event.  
 | |
| The feedback has been to develop focused webinars that target community developments across hardware, software, and systems.  
 | |
| This approach aligns with our open source community needs.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Our new webinar series will provide OPF the ability to continuously highlight the great work our community is doing,
 | |
| in a way that will bring increased engagement into OPF workgroups, projects, and initiatives.  
 | |
| We want to create webinar series that are accessible, simple, and community focused to provide our community an effective channel in which to highlight their achievements.  
 | |
| 
 | |
| These new webinars will occur at regular intervals, will have open CFPs for topics in advance for our community, and be streamed to multiple platforms to cover the widest audience. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| We are opening up the [CFP for our first webinar now](https://cfp.openpower.foundation/webinars/cfp/).
 | |
| Please submit your topic and ideas for content.
 | |
| If you have questions, please feel free to connect with us on our Slack channel or discussion forum.
