Hi there,
In this edition of our newsletter, we are thrilled to give you a preview of the exciting talks we have in store at this week’s Ubuntu Summit
The Ubuntu Summit is three things wrapped into one: a showcase, a launchpad, and a forum of ideas. It’s a showcase of projects that have had a positive impact and have the potential to change industries. It’s a launchpad for projects that show promise and need a hand-up. It’s a forum of ideas, because people come together, debate, and collaborate. Because Ubuntu has always been built on collaboration, this summit is a space for the entire open source community. We’re here to highlight excellence from every corner of the ecosystem.
So, what can you expect from Ubuntu Summit 26.04? We’ve put together a short cross-section of talks we believe represent the breadth of what we’ll be covering.
