Gary Brock at the University of Waterloo has passed along a note about an event on Thursday, April 2 at the Accelerator Centre presented by C4—the Southwestern Ontario technology transfer network that UW belongs to:

We've organized an upcoming half-day event which will explore different models for commercializing software, with a focus on open source.  It includes a keynote address by Greg DeKoenigsberg, who is Red Hat's Senior Community Development Manager and one of the leaders of the Fedora project http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Overview . We also have three Ontario software companies which came out of University research talking about their respective software business models.

Jonas Brandon from StartupNorth and ePresence will also be speaking, as will Maplesoft's Tom Lee and Netsweeper's Perry Roach.

Cost is $20, which includes breakfast.
