The Free Knowledge Institute celebrates the new year with the 2011 New
Year's Event on January 13th, together with over twenty local and
international Internet related organisations, such as RIPE NCC, Internet
Society, Gridforum, Bendeburgers, NLnet, Bits of Freedom, Open Domein and
SIDN! This year, the event will be held the Science Park in Amsterdam and is
hosted by the University of Amsterdam. You are sure to run into old friends,
acquaintances and new interesting people working on areas of the Internet
that you've not yet encountered. From grids and clouds to accessibility,
from hackers to hosters, from civil rights to registries - everyone will be
attending.

We start with a dinner buffet at 18.30h, so you can join us straight from
work. We have the main space reserved for drinks, food and conversation
only, so you can meet up with people you know or would like to meet. In a
dedicated part you can continue talking and drinking, find recruiters to see
if there are any new career challenges you should consider and get some
information and nice giveaways from the various organisations. In the
lecture hall we have a lot of interesting 'lightning talks' for you, so you
can get a quick update on what is happening or about to happen. Speakers
include Daniel Karrenberg, Alex Band (RIPE NCC), Carl Lens (Bendeburgers),
Matthijs Mekking (NLnet Labs), Mark Overmeer (NLUUG), Rick van Rein
(OpenFortress), Eric Velleman (Accessibility.nl) and Steven Pemberton (CWI).
And of course in the same lecture hall we will have the traditional
Chairman's debate at 20h.
