AGI is pleased to announce that this year’s AGI Annual Conference - AGI GeoCommunity '12: Sharing the Power of Place - will be held in Nottingham on the 18th to 20th September 2012.
"AGI GeoCommunity is the premier independent UK geographic information conference and is highly regarded by delegates. As before, a diverse mix of content will be aimed at what matters to the many sectors that use GI and its related technologies. In 2012 delegates will enjoy a top quality conference that builds on the success of previous AGI GeoCommunity events", said Chris Holcroft, AGI Director & CEO.
This is the 6th year of the extremely popular AGI GeoCommunity format and we will be returning to the East Midlands Conference Centre.
AGI GeoCommunity is the largest and most comprehensive independent conference in the UK digital mapping and geospatial calendar. The conference provides real insight and leadership in current geographic information and location based issues via a range of keynote addresses and conference papers as well as by hands on training and face to face delegate networking.
The AGI GeoCommunity series has a proven reputation as a 'must-attend' event for a range of service delivery managers and information management and technology professionals. Previous delegates and speakers have been drawn from Central and Local Government, Utilities, Health, Emergency Services, Infrastructure, Insurance, Marketing and Business Intelligence sectors.
AGI GeoCommunity '12 will open on the 18th September with the popular pre-conference 'Icebreaker' evening event and offer two full days of thought leadership, practical education, knowledge transfer and real world best practice and case studies.
To deliver this event, Dr Jeremy Morley, Centre for Geospatial Science, University of Nottingham will chair the event for a second year.
AGI GeoCommunity ‘11 attracted 450 delegates. The residential format, introduced in 2007, is now well established and the event has proven its growth and sustainability. Feedback from last year’s delegates indicated that 97% of those polled thought the event offered value for money and 89% felt it fulfilled their expectations. 97% said the venue was ‘good’ or ‘excellent. A full report of delegate feedback is available on the AGI website.

Prices are frozen for existing sponsorship packages and a new category has been created for Small Business and Education Members, plus companies that are AGI members can get additional booking discounts.
