Finally, the step we've been waiting for has been taken by a large amount of tech industry giants and important figures. From the beginning of the IT industry, the Open Source trend has been an element of geek legends, but the myth becomes reality in a push of the industry towards greater grounds.

In our enthusiasm, we want to share the beautiful things this old taboo subject has to offer in the software industry, with the help, of course, of great minds with state of the art skills.

OSCamp is an event specially dedicated to all those interested in the open source perspective. It aims to be the biggest event of its kind in Romania. Hosted in Iași, it is challenging over 300 participants to take part in a three day run over tech talks, workshops and an awesome hackathon.

OSCamp is organized in collaboration and with the full support of the [Faculty of Computer Science](https://www.info.uaic.ro/bin/Main/), [“Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University](https://www.uaic.ro/), Iași and the [Cyber Security Research Center from Romania (CCSIR)](http://ccsir.org/) for the Romanian developer and future developer community.

####Join us!

Our aim is to build a conference with a lasting future and huge impact. In that idea, more than 300 faculty and high school students, developers and enthusiasts are expected to join our event.

OSCamp is the first conference of its kind and magnitude in Romania. Participants of all kind have their place in our event. From the guru developer to the curious student, we fit all perspectives and interests. We aim to distinguish ourselves by a unique atmosphere and a general build-up of great minds.

Between everything, OSCamp is also a great place for companies to find talent based on real world and motivated interest in the open source community.

The city of Iași is where the OSCamp initiative will be hosted, a city that is becoming known for its IT community and IT related events, offering a full range of services and a good quality infrastructure to help get everything in place.

Although we are at our starting point, great efforts are being pushed into building OSCamp as a nation wide event with greatness built-in. OSCamp is an awesome opportunity to kick the open source community up a few notches and create a great foundation for a huge community, the community that Romania deserves.
