FOSS Meetup Hyderabad

In the Dec 2024 monthly event, we were pleasantly surprised at the number of audience members who briefly introduced FOSS projects from their personal and/or professional lives! So this month, we will only be doing short lightning talks - 5 or 10 mins to introduce a FOSS project of your choice! Everyone has a story to share and most of our audience has at least one FOSS project to talk about! We're looking forward to hearing from many of you at the Jan 2025 monthly event!
