2. Conference registration is strong
Conference registration is strong attendees and rising (up from 207 last year).
Yesterday – workshops, sustainability meeting. Thank you to all who attended and presented.
VIVO has had a very strong year since we last met. New partners, new implementations, new software. Throughout the conference you will hear extraordinary people doing extraordinary work.
We are often asked “what is VIVO?” There is a technical answer – an open source semantic web application for providing and curating information about scientists – their interests, activities and accomplishments.
There is a social answer – a community devoted to creating an open data infrastructure about science and scientists.
Over the next two days we will celebrate both. Welcome!
Welcome!
