Next generation internet tech at FOSDEM 2022
Check out NGI funded projects and tools this weekend
FOSDEM is a free annual event for software developers to meet, share ideas and collaborate. Every year, thousands of developers of free and open source software from all over the world gather at the event in Brussels, Europe - including many of the projects we support. Join us at FOSDEM 2022 and come check out the many useful and groundbreaking projects funded by our research and development grants to build a more open and privacy-friendly internet.
As it was the case last year, the pandemic means FOSDEM 2022 is an entirely online event. It remains free for everyone to join, no registration required. Join in to meet, chat and learn from the many developers and enthusiasts at FOSDEM.
NLnet is delighted to see so many people contributing to free and open source technology, and is of course very happy to see many developers and projects present and demonstrate their technologies which were recently funded by the Next Generation Internet research and development grants NGI Zero PET (privacy and trust enhancing technology), NGI Zero Discovery (improving open search and discovery) and NGI Assure. Below you can find an overview of projects represented at FOSDEM 2022 with the necessary details and links. In case we missed a presentation, do reach out to us and we will update the list accordingly. See you at FOSDEM!
