Crowdfunding campaign for the Ecuadorian Localization


In Ecuador, we have been working on the localization project for a year now, and we are about 80% done. With this progress, we think it is time to start our crowdfunding campain. Why now? Because we need to prove our current sponsors that we can finish it and most importantly, because no one will support a project that takes a year to be delivered.

The campaign will be launched on Feb the 11th and last for 70 days.

Call for events, participants and organizers

The OCA is looking for community events to participate and be present through you. We already collected a list of events but feel free to comment in the document if an important event is missing.


Based on our available resources, the OCA will finance its participation to the ones bringing the most contributors and users and cover the cost of booth space, your registrations and your talks. We will also provide you with marketing materials: brochures, flyers, goodies and allow you to translate and customize them with local references and users groups. So if you are interested to represent the OCA in one of those events, please contact us below.

On the first sheet of the document, we also listed the local Odoo user groups. If yours is not there or if you want to start a new one, please have a look at https://odoo-community.org/event and contact us.
