Hosted by Open Cities, the Czech Open Source Policy Forum 2024 is an event of paramount importance that celebrates the launch of the Czech Republic's first Open Source Policy Office (OSPO). This gathering is a testament to the collaborative efforts of leading organizations in the open source domain, marking a significant leap forward in the Czech National OSPO's journey.

The forum is not merely an event; it's a pivotal moment for the future of open source across public administration, academia, and beyond. It aligns with the European Union's vision for a digitalized, interoperable continent. We're bringing together policymakers, technologists, and open source advocates from around the world to engage in discussions set to shape the future of open source technologies within state and local governments.

This event represents a significant opportunity for stakeholders involved in open source policy and its implementation across Europe. We invite you to join us as we navigate the complexities of adopting open source technologies, aiming to foster a collaborative environment that benefits society and governance at large.

This event is happening under the patronage of the 20th-anniversary celebrations of the Czech Republic in the European Union.
