Announcing foss-north 2021

foss-north is a free / open source conference covering both software and hardware from the technical perspective. Hosted in Gothenburg between Copenhagen, Oslo, and Stockholm, with an international airport, we provide a meeting place for the Nordic foss communities and will bring together great speakers with a great audience.

The conference will be held on May 31 - June 1, paired with the community day on May 30. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the event will be virtual.
