> Jill Cousins is always a nice speaker. I saw her a couple of times and she is pretty good. She lives in the Netherlands now so it is not that hard for her to come by.
> If you want some more technical talk, ask David Haskiya. He is into the Europeana API and product development. If you want to focus more on the business aspect for institutions, you could ask Harry Verwayen. I've worked with him and he can also give a nice presentation together with the Osterwalder canvas (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_Model_Canvas)
> Other institutions to consider are the National Archive in Den Hague, which is not that far from Rotterdam. I've heard however that they are not as active anymore as they used to be. or Beeld en Geluid in Hilversum from 'Open Images' (http://www.openimages.eu/). Maarten Brinkerink or Johan Oomen are the right persons for this.
> I am not sure if it will work out, but you could always try to ask somebody from the Rijksmuseum, which has opened a part of their collection which opencultuurdata.nl (with Alper) has used in their hackathon. They have an interesting case study called 'the problem of the yellow milkmaid' (http://version1.europeana.eu/web/europeana-project/whitepapers/) co-authored by Harry Verwayen. It is however more than a year old, so maybe everybody has already heard this presentation.

> As a EC representative, Neelie is always gold. But she will probably be very busy. An alternative might be Marietje Schaake. I am not sure if she is into heritage, but she is a strong advocate for open data and a new kind of copyright regulation.
> 
> I will keep thinking about a re-user. As soon as I got something, I will let you know.
> 
> If it is possible, I would be very happy to attend the session as well.

>> Interesting. I would like to attend that session, would that be possible? If so, I will see if I can get my travel paid for in the DM2E budget.

>> In terms of representatives from Europeana you might want to consider inviting Jill Cousins.
>> 
>> Joris will probably be in a better position to advise on cultural heritage institutions based in Rotterdam. On the UK side of things you might want to consider Jo Pugh from the National Archives who has been very active in the open cultural heritage scene.
>> 
>> One further group to consider might be Wikimedia (although you probably have that covered!). I say that because there are strong arguments for the case that openness with respect to digital copies of images encourages access to your site through Wikipedia entries.
