Call For Papers

Open Source software is not only a way of licensing code but also a model of collaboration and community. At FOSS Backstage we want to explore the unique challenges and chances this model offers.

Together with our program committee, we want to shape a program that truly is “by the community for the community”. We are looking for talks which educate others on best practices or inspire further discussions in the following areas, which form our conference tracks:

Governance & Community
Economics
Legal & Compliance
Diversity & Inclusion
Growing Open Source
Security
Design

Related topics not explicitly listed above are of course welcome as well. We do not, however, accept product presentations or company marketing pitches. If you are seeking to market your company at FOSS Backstage, we’ll be delighted to send you our sponsoring prospectus and discuss all the benefits that a sponsorship entails. Please reach out to Paul at partner@foss-backstage.de to learn more.

We are offering the the following formats at FOSS Backstage:

Talk (30 min)
Workshop (60 min)
Panel (40 min)
Off Stage

Remote Sessions
We do offer the possibility to hold talks remotely for people who can’t travel to Berlin. If you choose to hold your session remotely, it will be streamed live to our online event platform and to a stage at our venue in Berlin.
