Join us for a drinks reception with Jimmy Wales, Wikipedia Founder, Katherine Maher, Wikimedia Foundation Executive Director, and special guests for a conversation on the independence, impact, and longevity of Wikipedia and the free knowledge movement.
These in-person events are special. They are fun. And they are unique. This year, our London event is the only one outside the United States. Wikipedia Founder Jimmy Wales will be there. So will Katherine Maher, our Executive Director. And so, we hope, will you. You'll be in good company as you share laughs, drinks, and conversations with people who care deeply about Wikipedia and want to support its independence, impact, and longevity.
The event itself is held at the Institute of Contemporary Arts. Just minutes from Trafalgar Square, Charing Cross station, and 10 Downing Street, the Institute of Contemporary Arts has welcomed thousands of thinkers, artists, and celebrants over the years -- including Academy Award winners, Grammy winners, Man Booker Prize winners, and more. It's a great place to have conversations about the world at large, and Wikipedia,
