In less than 10 days, Collabora will be in Brussels to take part in this year's edition of FOSDEM, a two-day event organised by volunteers to promote the widespread use of free and open source software. Taking place at the ULB Solbosch Campus on February 1 & 2, FOSDEM is widely recognized as the best and biggest conference of its kind in Europe.

Collaborans will be giving 12 talks over the weekend, on topics including KernelCI's new home, the latest on Zink (OpenGL on Vulkan), OpenXR & Monado, PipeWire in the automotive industry, JPEG2000, and GStreamer on the Magic Leap One.

You'll be able to hear them speak in the main track, as well as 6 different devrooms: Containers, Game Development, Graphics, Open Media, Testing & Automation, and Embedded, Mobile & Automotive. See below are the details for each presentation.

As usual, all talks are live-streamed throughout FOSDEM. Keep an eye on our various social media accounts where we will be sharing the links to each live stream as they become available.

However if you do plan on attending this year, please come say hello in one of these devrooms, or drop by the job corner to check out our current opportunities!

See you in Brussels!
