Hello all,

A few quick (yet exciting!) updates about this autumn's Open Knowledge
Festival <http://okfestival.org>, happening in Helsinki from September
17 - 22. Please share this information with interested colleagues if you
get a moment, and we look forward to seeing you all this fall in Helsinki!

You may have heard that OKFestival's team of over 100 Guest Programme
Planners from around the world have been hard at work, and this rumour
is quite true! Planners are now finalising their diverse programmes for
all 13 of the Topic Streams for 2012 on the festival schedule
<http://okfestival.org/schedule> which includes keynote speakers like
Gapminder's Hans Rosling, the EFF's Karsten Gerloff, Stanford
University's Tanja Aitamurto and Urbanscale's Adam Greenfield, as well
as a variety of intriguing workshops, sessions, lectures, hackathons and
coding jams from "The Art of #OpenData Cooking" to Open Government
Partnership meetings to hackdays on Open Science and Building the
Cultural Commons.

#### EARLY BIRD TICKETS NOW OPEN

OKFestival 2012 Early Bird Tickets are available at discounted rates
until the first week of August at
<http://okfestival.org/early-bird/tickets>. This year we offer both day
and week tickets, with week-long tickets covering all of OKFestival’s
action-packed core conference days from Tues Sept 18th to Thurs Sept
20th, with a summary and debrief day on Fri Sept 21st. A diverse variety
of Satellite Events are also running before and after the event.

#### LAST ROUND OF TRAVEL BURSARIES & FREE WEEK-LONG TICKETS

We are also very happy to announce another round of Travel Bursaries for
development practitioners, coders and new international guests thanks to
Sida (the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency), the
Sunlight Foundation and other programme partners. Deadlines are the 1st
and 8th of August, so we recommend applying soon. Applications can be
found at <http://okfestival.org/travel-bursaries/>.

#### #OKFEST CREW AND OTHER WAYS TO GET INVOLVED

For students and other participants who want to get more involved in the
festival itself in return for a free weeklong OKFestival ticket, we also
offer the #OKFestCrew Volunteer Scheme, which provides the opportunity
to engage with the backstage planning that goes into the organisation of
a major international festival <http://okfestival.org/okfestcrew>.

There are also many more ways for you to get involved. For development
practitioners, there has recently been a post about why those interested
in international development should come to Helsinki this fall
<http://twitter.com/MarijaNovkovic/status/220079657020702720>, and for
those working on academic research in Open Data, there is a Call for
Papers open here
<http://blog.okfn.org/2012/06/29/call-for-papers-open-data-academic-research-at-okfest/>.

#### CONTACT US

Have questions for our Topic Stream planners or the Core Organising
Team, or want to get more involved by proposing a satellite or evening
event? Feel free to contact us at <http://okfestival.org/contact>.
