About Summit
Why attend?
Red Hat Summit is for anyone interested in open source. It just so happens our open source solutions power 90% of Fortune 500 companies, and we’d love to show you why.
What to expect
Red Hat Summit is all about open source. This year, we’re focusing on the endless possibilities of open source. The ideas worth exploring.
Because what draws us together each year isn’t the technology alone; it’s what we can do with it. Open source technology gives us a platform for imagination, a focal point to collectively push for new possibilities. Think about it: Automation, artificial intelligence, machine learning—these are all gifts we gave ourselves so we have a little more time to wonder not only “What if?” but also “What for?” and “With whom?”
So join us at Red Hat Summit 2018, where you can ask your own questions in an arena of ideas focused on reinventing what we have and wondering what might be.
Who attends?
Executives. Architects. Consultants. Admins. Engineers. Analysts. Managers. Partners. Vendors. Developers. All kinds of people come to Red Hat Summit, from the career IT pro to the open source contributor, our attendees represent nearly every industry from all over the world.
