As the producer of the main forum of COSCon 2023, I have been alternating between anxiety and excitement. The anxiety stems from the myriad of tasks, tight deadlines, constant adjustments, and endless changes. The excitement comes from organizing a very new type of “forum” with countless fresh ideas pouring in. The arrival of heavyweight guests also makes us increasingly look forward to the final presentation.
Finally, today, as the annual grand event of the open-source community, all our cast and crew are in place. The main feature of this forum is a roundtable format called Mind Hackathon, where we will arrange five roundtable discussions over two mornings, bringing you a feast of thought and creativity.
On October 28-29 in Chengdu, there’s another reason you can’t miss. We look forward to your arrival!
