This global, multidisciplinary research symposium brings academics and practitioners together to advance understanding of the role of Open Source and other Open Technologies in the modern world and produces policy-relevant research that helps decision-makers drive impact.

In an era defined by geopolitical shifts, economic instability, and rapid technological evolution, open technologies play a crucial role in shaping a more transparent, resilient, and equitable digital future. The OFA Symposium 2025, themed ‘Open Technology Impact in Uncertain Times’, will bring together leading academic researchers and practitioners – including policymakers, industry experts, and civil society – to explore the tangible impact of open technology in navigating complex geopolitical uncertainties.

Through expert panels, case studies, and collaborative discussions, the OFA Symposium 2025 will consider the transformative potential of openness in a world where certainty is no longer guaranteed. It will ask (and offer some answers to) questions like: What is the economic impact of open source software and other open technologies? How do open source software, open standards, and open data contribute to digital sovereignty, sustainability, and innovation? What challenges arise in sustaining and securing open technologies? And how can we understand the role of open source AI in upending the geopolitical landscape?

To join the Symposium as a speaker, participants need only submit an abstract for consideration of the Programme Committee. Should a paper be accepted, participants will need to submit a full paper, summary, or abstract summary (depending on the submission type, see Paper Categories and Timeline for more details and dates).

The CfP of the Symposium is now open until 1 June 2025.
