Hosting Akademy can seem daunting. Please don't let this be a major
consideration. There is an experienced team within the KDE Community
that will work in close partnership with the host team. You will
succeed.

Besides KDE, your local community also stands to benefit from Akademy.
We work mostly online, invisible to the outside world. Unique among
KDE projects, hosting Akademy gives KDE a physical presence including
exceptional people who contribute their energy to serving others. The
way that Akademy is extended into the local community depends on the
imagination of the local team. Experienced people are available to
assist with ideas and implementation.
