* '''On The Road in Asia''' -- Mozilla Developer Roadshow 2019 rolls into several cities in Asia in the month of November and we hope you’ll consider joining us. The Roadshow, organized by our Developer Relations team, is a meetup-style, Mozilla-focused event series for people who build the web. Come hear highlights of the latest and greatest Mozilla and Firefox technologies and the story of how the web continues to democratize opportunities for developers and digital creators. We’ll be in Tokyo next Monday, November 11th, then in Seoul on November 13th, Taipei on November 15th, Singapore on November 18th, and Bangkok on November 12th. All the events are free to attend, but we ask you register in advance as space can be limited. All the details are on the event [https://mozilla-tito-devr.netlify.com/ web page].

* '''Industry and Academia Collaboration''' -- The first annual Alliance for Open Media (AOM) Research Symposium happened last week. Many of the companies who participated in AV1 along with a host of top university researchers outlined their work and how it could be used as part of broad, collaborative effort to bring ever more advanced video encoding, playback, and distribution to the world using royalty-free, superior quality technologies. You’ll find the event agenda as well as all the presentation slides and abstracts on the event [https://aomedia.org/aomedia-research-symposium-2019/ web site].
