CFP

Call for Participation is now closed

SOOCon24 is the UK’s open technology conference bringing together those involved or interested in open source software, open data and open hardware in one unique forum.

SOOCon24 will be held February 6-7, 2024 at the beautiful Brewery in the City of London.

This year’s CFP is now closed. Thank you to everyone who submitted content this year.  Our CFP Committees are busy reviewing all of the submissions and we aim to announce the conference schedule by 15th December.

2024 tracks: Open Source Software – technical; Open Hardware – mostly technical; Open Data hosted by the Open Data Institute – broad ranging; Security – all things security from technical talks, to the CRA and other legislation and policy issues; Government, Law and Policy – across all of open technology; Open Source – from digital public good and paying the maintainers, to community development and business models, filling the gap between technical and law and policy topics (there may be some overlap); Careers and Entrepreneurship – from making your first commit to scaling a start up; Finance – technical, policy and more in a subject vertical, our first and reflective of the UK’s presence in this sector. 

EDI and Sustainability are not separate tracks but run through the heart of this event.
