Thank you once again for your kind response regarding our outreach for the IEEE Summer of Code 2025 initiative. As mentioned, we understand that our request lies outside the scope of ASF Fundraising, and we truly appreciate your willingness to forward our proposal to the Conferences and Community Development teams. As we are finalizing our collaboration partners for the program, I wanted to follow up and check if there has been any update or interest from those teams regarding potential involvement or support. We remain enthusiastic about the possibility of collaborating with ASF and showcasing your incredible open-source impact to our global student community. Event Overview: - Dates: May 9th – June 28th, 2025 - Format: a Hybrid (Online + In-Person Sessions at BMSIT) 50-day global open-source development sprint - First Offline Meet Venue: BMSIT, Bangalore - Target Audience: Students across the globe - Current Reach: 1800+ confirmed registrations | 10,00,000+ digital impressions in the first week - Website: www.ieeesoc.xyz - Supported By: - IEEE Young Professionals Global (Main Sponsor) - IEEE Computer Society Bangalore Chapter (Technical Co-Sponsor) How *Apache* Can Collaborate: Your involvement would be invaluable to the initiative, and we’d be honored to explore support in any of the following areas: Swag & Merchandise: Stickers, T-shirts, or giveaways that help create a tangible, memorable connection to the open-source community. Monetary Support: To help fund logistics, participant rewards, and infrastructure — ensuring inclusivity and smooth execution. Mentorship or Speaker Sessions: Engaging talks or workshops by *Apache* maintainers would significantly enrich the learning experience. Project Contributions: We’d be thrilled to feature *Apache*-affiliated projects as part of our contribution pool. Visibility Support: Promoting the event through your networks and channels to expand outreach. With a focus on accessibility and learning-by-doing, IEEE Summer of Code is designed to be beginner-friendly and community-centric, aiming to onboard the next wave of open-source contributors. I am attaching the Event Brochure in case you need to go through some points. We’d love to explore how we can collaborate and create meaningful impact together. Looking forward to discussing this further!
