Introduction
The second OpenPOWER Summit Europe will be held in Amsterdam on October 3rd – 4th 2018.
The event will have a strong technical emphasis and bring together developers, engineers, executives, decision makers and researchers from across the OpenPOWER End Users and Developer Ecosystem.
Developer Training, Keynotes and technical sessions will provide a rich variety of content from technical deep dives to recent OpenPOWER commercial successes, with a particular emphasis on the European region.
There’ll be true software and hardware developer training opportunities, longer technical sessions including Birds of Feather (BoFs) and bring your own computer sessions as well as an expo area where OpenPOWER Members will present their solutions.
Expect sessions on PCIe Gen4, CAPI, OpenCAPI, Linux, OpenBMC, GPU, FPGA, I/O, Power Architecture, performance optimisation, system management and more.
Details on Event registration for the Summit will be announced in mid August.
Participating in the Summit
The Call for Speakers deadline has passed. Thanks to all who have submitted their abstracts!
OpenPOWER Members and other interested parties are also invited to apply to present solutions- software and hardware in the Exhibition space. For more information on this please contact us at Summit-EU-Info@openpowerfoundation.org
Don’t forget to plan to attend the Open Compute Project Regional Summit – October 1st & 2nd at the same venue the two days prior to our event!
