Educause 2014 takes place in Orlando from September 29th through October 2nd. Several thousand delegates from North American and global higher education organizations are expected to attend the conference.

The Open Source Initiative and the Apereo Foundation, a higher education-focused open source initiative, have organized the Open Communities Reception at Educause 2014. The reception is co-sponsored my several open initiatives supporting higher education, including: Asahi.net, BigBlueButton, ESUP, IMS Global, OERu, OSCELOT, Red Hat, SoLAR, and the University of Southern Queensland. The reception provides a great chance for attendees to meet and get to know each other.
