The Ubuntu Summit 25.10 Call for Abstracts is officially open and we are looking for speakers who desire to share their bold vision of the future. Here are just a few themes that align with the Summit spirit:
- Groundbreaking new projects
- Innovation in open ecosystems and communities
- Crossing the divide from proprietary to open source
Even more global,
for even more impact

This year, rather than a single event in a fixed location, we're shifting to an online experience. Our London hub will host the talks and demos, but our LoCos and open source communities will actively participate through local Ubuntu release and watch parties.
With this new approach, we're making the Summit available to a wider audience, and enabling our speakers to take their impact to the next level.
You're invited to contribute

If you're working on something amazing, or want to give back to the open source community, then the Ubuntu Summit is the place to do it.
Past speakers have:
- Transported us to Africa to see the impact of open source on schools, startups and communities.
- Taught us how digital designers can break free from proprietary software.
- Traversed a whole range of topics, from Rust and ARM64 to sustainability and the impact of open source on teenage lives.
If you want to be among them, then we need you to submit your abstract by the deadline.
