Open Source 101 2023 Summary

March 29, 2023

Open Source 101 2023 was the 9th event we’ve hosted – and it was fantastic.

For the first time, this year’s Open Source 101 took place in Charlotte, NC. The networking and “vibe” onsite was extremely positive, enthusiastic and supportive. Thanks to our Gold sponsors we were also able to live stream the morning Keynotes and two tracks of content to virtual attendees.

We’ve attempted to “sum up” Open Source 101 2023 below with graphics, numbers and links. Take a look and let us know if you have questions at info@allthingsopen.org.

And to everyone that registered and participated – THANK YOU from the entire ATO team!! We have the best community in the world, and OS101 was again proof of that.

Finally, many thanks to our wonderful and world-class sponsors and partners for making the event possible as well. Please visit each of them and say “thanks” if the opportunity arises.
