Open Source isn't just Linux. It is a plethora of software that fits all kinds of different use cases and business needs. Thousands of Open Source applications are enterprise ready and already being used in high profile organisations including Google, National Australia Bank, NSW Judicial Commission, Nokia and many, many more from every industry! The collaborative nature of Open Source development means software is developed rapidly, to a high quality, is standards compliant, customisable and broadly applicable to a variety of different needs. It often delivers significant costs-savings, however organisations that have been strategically using Open Source often cite security, improved value, scalability and greater strategic control over their ICT environments as the top business benefits.

Open CeBIT is Australia's premier expo and conference focused on Open Source for business. We invite leading specialists – both locally and globally – to showcase new high profile case studies and also to provide practical information to help attendees understand Open Source. Understanding Open Source doesn't mean ripping and replacing infrastructure today that already works. It means being able to make informed decisions about future ICT initiatives, both upgraded and new. The Open CeBIT conference is important for ICT decision makers and practitioners to ensure they can make the best ICT decisions possible, some of which will include Open Source and some which won’t. Without this knowledge you won't know what you are missing out on!

Open CeBIT delivers both strategic and practical information for high level management and ICT professionals. We ensure that attendees to the conference gain a high level understanding of Open Source as well as practical tools and knowledge they can apply immediately. The expo showcases Australia's leading Open Source vendors and suppliers, so attendees can seek out appropriate vendors to ensure a high level of enterprise-level support and service around Open Source solutions they are considering or implementing.

We look forward to seeing you at Open CeBIT, and assisting you in leveraging Open Source for your organisation needs. To book your tickets, or if you have any questions, please contact us.
