Be a Part of Mozilla's Voice
Every day, there are many opportunities for Mozilla to evangelize and build community, but some of these pass us by without us even realizing they occurred.
This is where you come in.
Mozilla is a giant set of people from different countries with different backgrounds all with the commonality of appreciating and supporting similar ideals of the Web. Our goal is to have Mozilla participants feel empowered and prepared to speak about Mozilla. Today, employees do a fair amount of speaking all over the world, but that is just a drop in the bucket. Many equally interesting and compelling stories are to be found outside of these spokespeople. A set of Mozilla participants already do speak publicly on behalf of Mozilla, but this is informal and individual. Unfortunately, there is no coordination to identify good opportunities or to provide useful materials. Let's see if we can change this! Firefox is spread to new users, first and foremost, by word of mouth, making each possible speaking opportunity even more important.
We need you to be a part of the Mozilla voice!
We are involved with many events (Mozilla Events Calendar), but there are many more that we do not know about or can't attend directly.
Please post any events that you feel Mozilla should be represented at below. These include conferences, panels, discussions, user groups, school meetings, etc. With back to school just around the corner, how about holding a Firefox tutorial?
We want to have a populated list starting in August 2007!
For all events at which you are interested in representing Mozilla, please include your name and expertise next to the event, and email us at events at mozilla dot com so we can get in touch with you after you've added your event.
We can help you on a case by case basis with requests. We are ready to provide speaker training, Firefox or Mozilla materials such as posters, buttons, and shirts, or by providing you with presentation materials. Let us help you help us!

Talking Points on Mozilla & Firefox
Here is background information on Firefox and Mozilla to help you represent us. Hopefully, these materials can help you when figuring out what to say about both.
