���Open the Power House of networked Innovation - open source, open standards and open content���.
The aim of the Holland Open Software Conference is to present a broad variety of open initiatives and projects. We offer a platform were knowledge can be exchanged and were people meet in a professional and enthusiastic atmosphere. The conference likes to show the attendee that open solutions are available and that they can cope.
There will be provocative debate and unconventional contributions. The Conference will feature a broad range of best practices, scientific tracks as well as invited presentations. We do offer all invited speakers, papers, projects and our appreciated sponsors the possibility to go into depth or debate with the audience on the after conference on Saturday, June 17th. Communities will make things happen, communities will organize specific in depth events for (their) developers and coding marathons. We expect to see that more marvelous contributions and results will be created on the spot. We challenge you to investigate what can be learned from your research on and experiences with open methods and invite you to share the knowledge on the conference.
