5 Days, 200+ Speakers, Hundreds of Technologies, and 3000 Hackers Like You

Register by June 7 for the Early Price

Join the world’s open source pioneers, builders, and innovators July 16-20, at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, Oregon for five intense days. Learn about open development, challenge your assumptions, and fire up your brain.

OSCON is where the serious thinkers and doers—and their favorite technologies—converge. And when the day’s sessions are over, join the 3,000 or more people just like you for some serious fun.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re an open source rock star or programmer by day/rock star by night, or somewhere in between--OSCON is a meeting of like minds. If you work with open source, you’ll want to be here.

With a dozen plus tracks and hundreds of sessions, you’ll find practical tutorials, inspirational keynotes, and a wealth of information on open source languages, platforms, and development. Plus, OSCON offers fabulous networking events, the best “hallway track” around, and an Expo Hall that’s both entertaining and worthwhile.
