The partnership covers EGI’s next two flagship events – the Technical Forum in Prague (17-21 September, 2012) and the Community Forum in Manchester (8-12 April, 2012) – and will help to promote the meetings’ outputs to a wider audience.

In addition to broadcasting EGI’s announcements, Hostingtecnews.com will also provide editorial coverage before, during and after the events to maximise the impact of the technical and scientific programme.
