Alyssa and I will be in Barcelona next week for Mobile World Congress. We’re looking forward to talking with people across the mobile industry to see what new projects everyone is working on, and sharing our work from Mapzen.

I’ll be taking part in the panel “The Next Generation Mapping Platform will be Open Source,” with some of the brightest minds in open geo. I’m excited for a great forward-looking conversation with CartoDB’s Javier de la Torre, Mapbox’s Eric Gundersen, and Tyler Bell from Factual. Thanks in particular to CartoDB for pulling this panel together.

Catch the panel on Wednesday, March 4 at 15:30 CET in the presentation area of the Spanish Pavilion (Congress Square CS60).

We’ll also be at a geobeers event on Wednesday night from 20:00 CET at the itnig space: Carrer Àlaba 61, 5-2 Barcelona. Stop by if you’re free or drop a line if you want to meet up!
