Webinar.
OASIS will host an EDXL Interoperability

Security Expo (EMEX), held in conjunction with the annual conference of the International
Association of Emergency Managers (IAEM). Members of the
OASIS Emergency Management (EM) Technical and Adoption Committees will showcase
applications and tools that support the Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL)
suite of standards.
Any
organization or company interested in signing-up to participate should complete
the online form by the 1 August deadline:

OASIS has reserved 20$B!G(Bx30$B!G(B space
based on the level of interest received, as well as recommendations of the EM
Events and Demo Sub-Committee.
Cost
A
fee per participating company will be allocated to cover the costs associated
with the show floor demonstration.
OASIS foundational- and sponsor-level
members receive a 25% discount off the fee. Foundational-level members
are also welcome to use a Premium. Please contact Carol Geyer ()
for more details.
Interop participant fees include:
2600 USD per participating company
1950 USD for foundational- &
sponsor-level members
Each
organization will receive all the benefits outlined below. Space will be available
for set-up and testing on Monday, 1 November. The show will open for a
special reception Monday evening. A minimum number of six participants
are required to ensure the floor space.
Again, Interop participants must register
