So I think it would be better that you work with that committee on such a thing. 3.) Money to sponsor an Apache Con in Africa(even a road show) or some > other under represented location.

I'm hoping to have it in shape for FY2021. Feel free to email me if you want to help with the pre-proposal side of things so I can present the idea to planners when it's ready. We have had a roadshow in China. This would likely be better to discuss on the planners committee, though. We have a well established Events committee and lots of events around the world being discussed.
