About eLiberatica

Following the huge public success the first edition of eLiberatica gained in 2007, the second edition will continue in the same tradition: to gather community and business leaders around the world to talk about the hottest Open and Free Technologies topics; you will hear from today’s experts in various fields of technical and business practice and become part of an event that is far more than a simple conference.

eLiberatica 2008 is intended to focus on three main concepts:

• Business adoption - how to make/save money and gain profit using Open and Free Technologies;
• Government, administration and public schools - the importance of Open and Free Technologies;
• Professional growth participating in the FLOSS (Free/Libre/Open Source Software) community.

eLiberatica has its unique spirit and identity, all who attended the first edition know what this is about: you will learn and discover new things, but you will also meet high profile speakers, business people, high-tech professionals, you will make new friends, new partners, celebrate and truly enjoy the event.
