Why SFSCON?

SFSCON has been a cornerstone event for Free Software enthusiasts since its inception in 2001.

Our CSO, Charles Schulz, on "Why Open Digital Infrastructure Matters"

Our Chief Strategy Officer, Charles Schulz, will be presenting a compelling talk on the importance of open digital infrastructure. While software freedom is often legally defined by a set of approved FSF and OSI software licenses, Charles will explore how true digital sovereignty extends far beyond these licenses. His talk will cover:

  • Defining Software Freedom: Beyond licenses, the need for mastery over hardware components and systems.
  • Challenges and Solutions: An overview of the challenges Europe faces in achieving digital sovereignty and the collective efforts underway to overcome them.
  • A Collective Future: How we can contribute to ensuring our digital independence and freedoms.
