Xuropa offers FEL free exhibition space

Fedora, since day one, has brought innovation in various ways to the opensource software ecosystem.

This week, we have opened an Online Booth at Xuropa to strengthen the opensource hardware design community.

Xuropa is a new company focussing on building an online EDA community around commercial and opensource EDA tools. With its platform, the community can evaluate different tools, give presentations about one’s EDA software and identify the most appropriate software for his/her design methodology.

Xuropa founder, James Colgan, offered us the Online Booth for free, meanwhile they setup the Online Lab. Xuropa and FEL both shared a common vision on strengthening EDA community in terms of marketing, trials, communication and networking. Though Xuropa was recently opened last september, I believe that, from a top-level point of view, the current EDA industry needs such infrastructure to build up a worldwide EDA community, rather than a community with big names only.

I invite you to visit our Online booth and promote opensource EDA software through this booth.

For some reason, FEL got lined up aside Cadence

A Professional marketing strategy for the EDA community

The Electronic Design community has its own social networking space dedicated for EDA software tool, Xuropa. Xuropa proposes Online Kiosk, Online Booth, Online Suite and Online Lab to exhibit one’s EDA tool (independent whether it’s analog, digital or AMS).

I’ve sent them a mail requesting a free exhibition space (as a non-profit organisation) for our Fedora Electronic Lab.

This social networking space is very different from the linkedin or facebook way, in terms it mimics a real-life forum where one can give presentations about one’s product. Knowing the fact that the opensource community has limited resources in research and development, our presence as Fedora Electronic Lab is very important to represent all the opensource EDA upstream projects.
