Born in France, living in Germany, working around the world, I have a long experience in anything intercultural. I have been active in the Wikimedia projects and the Wikimedia organisations since 2004 and have been observing how Open Knowledge evolves and changes with time and as new people come in.

I am happy to talk about Wikimedia (the organisation, the non-profit aspect, the chapters, the international aspects), the Wikimedia projects (their international reach and presence), but also about Collaboration on an international level, especially in Open Source and Free knowledge fields.

I like to share knowledge, which is why I am not limited just to speaking, but also am interested in workshops / expert tables and moderation. Additionally I have become a frequent advisor for organizers of conferences as well as am involved in several barcamps.

One of my favourite topics is how to grow your business internationally, both from the side of for example the US coming to Europe as vice versa, but I am also happy to 'just' transport what is so special about the net and web 2.0.

Alicia has an IT degree from Sydney, Australia, and has worked in internet and mobile application product management for 10 years.

However, in 2006, as a result of a failed Google job interview, Alicia decided to implement an idea for a web application she had come up with years before, and start her own web start-up.

She used her savings, and worked full-time while developing the proposition, and hired Romanian developers to make her vision a reality. It was hard unforgiving work, but her passion and dedication to her vision kept her working day and night.
