Subject: Announcing the 2015 CC Global Summit: Seoul, October 15-17

After an exhaustive process, we’re proud to announce that the 2015 CC
Global Summit
<https://donate.creativecommons.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3969&qid=1310849>
will be in Seoul, South Korea. The CC Korea team put forward an exciting
bid, and have proven their experience and skill at planning conferences. I
have every confidence that they'll be a great partner in producing the
conference. In addition, this year marks their 10th anniversary, so we will
be able to celebrate their accomplishments with our international community.

The conference will run from Thursday Oct. 15 to Saturday Oct. 17, 2015.

We will put out a public call for papers and workshops shortly. There will
be more information soon, but for now, anyone interested can sign up for
more information at https://summit.creativecommons.org
<https://donate.creativecommons.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=3969&qid=1310849>
.

This year, we hope to not only build a conference that allows the CC family
to come together to work on important issues, but also to expand our
invitation list to include organizations and individuals who want to work
with us on shared projects that advance the cause of the Commons, free
culture and open knowledge. I’m confident that a “bigger tent” strategy
will help strengthen CC and grow our community globally.

So if you’re active and engaged in the worlds of open content and knowledge
— free software and free culture advocates, Wikipedians, Open Knowledge,
galleries, libraries, museums, archives, governments and foundations,
lawyers, and activists — we hope you’ll consider joining us this year to
build a stronger, more vibrant commons together.

I'm really excited for this year's event, and hope to see you there.

CEO, Creative Commons
