The two-day conference brings together experts from across the open source software ecosystem to discuss community development, project management, and compliance. The event focuses specifically on the non-technical dimensions of open source software.

Held in Berlin, the conference provides opportunities for participants to engage with community leaders, practitioners, executives, developers, technologists, and other stakeholders active in the field.

The programme addresses key themes such as managing sustainable communities, navigating legal and compliance frameworks, and creating the conditions for successful open source projects. It also highlights current challenges affecting the wider ecosystem and explores potential solutions.

The event aims to foster exchange and collaboration across different projects, licence models, communities, and organisations by bringing participants together around shared interests, challenges, and objectives.

Content is organised across three stages and seven thematic tracks:

• Governance & Community
• Economics
• Legal & Compliance
• Diversity & Inclusion
• Growing Open Source
• Security
• Design

The conference features presentations, panel discussions, and networking opportunities designed to provide insight into the organisational and social aspects of open-source development.
