 OK, so here we are. Good to see you all. Apologies on the slide today, but I think we're ready to kick off. The audio video is now set up. So this is the opening speech, opening session, 9 AM kickoff. So first of all, I'd like to welcome you all to this year's Open Tech Summit. So really welcome to everyone. So I'd like to just ask yourselves to give yourself a round of applause. Good. There'll be a bit of a plodding because we've got kind of the formalities to get started this morning. We're meeting again this year to celebrate the progress in open source software. The growing support towards the community, the projects. We're able to build stronger networks and for yourselves to meet peers and like-minded individuals. So that's why we're gathering again for FOSS Asia 2019. The future is FOSS. That is the slogan for this year's theme around the maturing of FOSS. And it gives credibility to the growing adoption of open source. You'll get to learn a lot in the next few days, interact with great speakers, and I encourage you to participate, share, ask questions, and network with your fellow attendees. So today we can reflect on an eventful last 12 months since FOSS Asia 2018. I think IBM bought Red Hat. OSI is celebrating 20 years of open source. Linux reached 25 years of open source and also released Linux 5. It's a good one. We saw Microsoft by GitHub, a really big move. And very recently, F5 bought Nginx. And if anybody has a guess as to how much I was for. So 650 million. And so what we're seeing is a lot of money and a lot of support going into these open source initiatives and these projects. However, this year is also a very special year because FOSS Asia celebrates its 10th anniversary. So just a round of applause. Good. So a brief introduction to myself. My name is Thorsten. I am part of our wonderful organizing committee of volunteers. This is still a very much volunteer run event and summit based in Singapore. And together we've organized and arranged this four days of content-filled summit. I'll be facilitating this opening. So really just to give you an introduction, help you settle in, and we're going to kick off the event very shortly. First of all, a few acknowledgments. And I welcome an applause for our valued speakers that have traveled here from far. Please. So special welcome to our international attendees from FOSS stem, the organizers of Chaos Community Congress, OpenFest BG. We've got JogartFest in India. And we also welcome Building Blocks in Singapore. You guys here? Thanks. Who in this audience is a FOSS Asia developer? Any show of hands? OK. So just a round of applause for them for contributing to our projects and supporting all the initiatives. Most importantly, FOSS Asia welcomes not only engineers and the geeks. We also welcome students, the new joiners to the FOSS community, the large corporates that are supporting us, and especially our sponsors. And I'll tell you more about those. So thanks to them. Really? Thanks. OK. Sponsor number one and our very honored Diamond Sponsors, IBM. So a round of applause for them. Thanks so much, IBM. We've got our Platinum Sponsor, Google code, Google open source. So thank you so much. We've got our Gold Sponsor, Microsoft. I've got to thank them again for supporting us this year. Indeed, again a Gold Sponsor. And thank you for their support. And interestingly, and very appreciated for Facebook to come on board, too. So thank you, Facebook. OK, our Bronze Sponsors, Flowchain and Oracle. Thanks again for joining this year. As well as our Hackathon partners, UNESCO, after last year's successful event and our Hackathon event and prize giving on the final day. So thank you to them for sponsoring us, too, really. Our Media Partner, SPH, as well as our venue and co-sponsor this year to have Lifelong Learning Institute come on board and really participate and invest in this event and make it more successful. So thank you to them. OK. Thanks to all the sponsors and partners. And so these have made this entire event possible. So really just sharing with you that we've quite a community. We've got our volunteers who are busy in the exhibition room setting everything up. And so we hope the next four days are going to be really fun, interesting, and full of learning. What I'd like to talk quickly is to highlight the program. What we've done this year is we've reduced the number of tracks to make it more focused. We try to aim to ensure high-quality content. So that's why all of you travel here from far and abroad. We have rooms across four floors, which you'll see indicated on the left, and then elevators on the two sides of the buildings to take you up to the higher floors. A detailed mobile-friendly schedule is on the website. And you'll be able to navigate that and shortlist your favorite tracks. Please do arrive on time. Otherwise, just enter quietly and let the session get on. So just bringing this to a close, we're in the spirit of celebrating our 10th year milestone. We also have a social event this year again. So that's Saturday night, and we'll be at this building with some buffet, entertainment, and cultural events. So we're looking forward to bringing you all together again. And to walk you through this morning to jump into it and get started, now that we've finished the protocol, I really hope that you all have a very good and memorable first Asia 2019. OK, right. All the best.
