What is GOSCON?
GOSCON is the premier Government Open Source Conference now in its sixth year and for the first
time in Washington, D.C. at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center.

This year's expanded GOSCON will have a strategic policy and management track, a track of
government success stories and the Open Technology Forum sponsored by Red Hat and Carasoft for open
source implementers. Also you will be able to visit our hands on open source labs to see open
source software in action.

Open source software has proven itself to be more than a coding strategy and is now recognized as a
transformational business strategy by top government leaders from both the IT and policy arenas.
