The Univention Summit 2017 – Where the Open Source Scene Comes Together

300 IT professionals from system houses, cloud service providers, and software developers met Open Source users for networking opportunities and knowledge transfer.

As usual, the Univention Summit was used as a platform for finding out more about the latest trends in IT, discovering Open Source solutions, learning from best practice examples, and simply conversing with like-minded individuals and colleagues.

Dynamic keynote speeches, user and partner presentations, technical and strategic workshops, plus a relaxing evening get-together at the Universum Science Center with a science spectacle and dinner made the summit the perfect place for Open Source enthusiasts to come together.

#UniventionSummit

There were a lot of interesting presentations. For me the technical track was an awesome time to spend and I learned a lot about docker. We had very interesting discussions and as I mentioned an awesome evening.

Christian Degen, Open-Xchange AG

Univention is an important platform for customers and partners to configure Kopano easily and get it started quickly. Many suggestions on this and further ideas actually have been generated in conversations during the last Summit.

Andreas Rösler, Kopano

Every year, the Univention Summit is a highlight where partner and vendors meet to share new information they can get here. Always a beautiful location with outstanding food. You are just looking forward to it.

Robert Siedl, siedl networks

What we appreciate about the Univention Summit are the open conversations you can have here with various users and resellers. The summit is of special quality and compares to none in Germany. It is really unique.
