Hello Fellow Promoers,

We have the chance to participate in OpenExpo Europe 2019 (https://
openexpoeurope.com/).We have requested a booth and they said yes.

This event is geared towards businesses in the IT sector. Most attendees are 
currently Spanish, but the international crowd is growing. We will be showing 
off Plasma and Plasma Mobile on several devices, as well as frameworks like 
Kirigami. 

In exchange for the booth, they want the usual: that we help them to divulge 
their event. We can do this at the same time we divulge our participation, so 
we don't have to publish anything that doesn't feel organic

As the deadline for applying for booths ends on the 3rd of March, we have to 
move fast on this (surprise!) and I suggest we start pushing stuff out tomorrow 
morning.

This action will contribute to the following Long Term Goals: 

"Contribute to help increase the number of software companies that use KDE 
frameworks as the basis for their UI-based applications"

"Contribute to acquiring more sponsors"

"Contribute to making KDE a household name be trying to make KDE, Plasma and 
some of KDE's more popular applications recognisable"

"Help KDE become recognised as a provider of quality software and improve 
consumers' and businesses' awareness and positive perception of KDE products."

"Helping get manufacturers preinstall KDE software on devices"

etc.

My personal feeling is that there will be plenty of attendees that are not 
aware of our work, which means plenty of opportunities of advancing in some or 
all those areas.

I will be creating a task on Phabricator to coordinate this event  presently.

Cheers

Paul
