the Italian VObs.it umbrella initiative that provides connection and representation of the Italian astrophysics interoperability community in the IVOA.

This event, after a few introductory talks, will give space to participants in sharing their work, requirements, and ideas, leading into an open discussion on standards, interoperability, and planning for VObs.it to continue its efforts.

Given the goal to connect the participants in VO efforts in Italy, the attendance is upon invitation. If you feel someone is missing on the invite list, please contact Marco Molinaro.
