OpenTech 2008 July 4, 2008
London, England
Open Tech 2008 is an informal, low cost one-day conference on technology, society and low-carbon living, featuring Open Source ways of working and technologies that anyone can have a go at."
Taking place on 5th July, 2008, in London, the line-up currently features:
* mySociety
* No2ID
* Open Rights Group
* plus whatever you offer for a session
This event's predecessor, was Opentech 2005 - a low cost, one-day conference about technologies that anyone can have a go at, from "Open Source"-style ways of working to repurposing everyday electronics hardware. Before that was NotCon 2004, an informal, low-cost, one-day conference on things that technologies were perhaps not intended to do.
