2019 Nonprofit Software Development Summit
Our 16th annual Nonprofit Software Development Summit will be held 6-8 November, 2019, at Preservation Park, Oakland.
Our collaborative three-day gathering is designed for everyone from grassroots activists to software developers, bringing together participants from around the world to share knowledge, build relationships, and collectively envision the future of free and open technology to support social change.

Co-create the agenda
The agenda is a diverse collection of discussions and interactive sessions that are developed in collaboration with confirmed participants. We employ an interactive and participatory approach to convenings, and work to specifically address the outcomes that will be most useful and relevant to everyone who attends.
We invite you to bring your stories, ideas, questions, and knowledge to share.
