Open Hardware Summit 2025

We're so excited to be bringing the Open Hardware Summit to Edinburgh in 2025!

Since 2010, the Open Source Hardware Association, a 501(c)(3) not for profit charity, has hosted the Open Hardware Summit- a comprehensive conference for the open hardware community and the ever changing open source hardware movement.

Speakers include world renowned leaders from industry, academia, the arts and maker community. Talks cover a wide range of subjects from electronics, mechanics to related fields such as digital fabrication, creative tech, fashion technology, self-quantification devices, and IP law. As a microcosm of the Open Source Hardware community, the Open Hardware Summit provides an annual, friendly forum for the community.

The Open hardware Summit is a place for anyone who enjoys making and sharing physical things in any way, even if you aren't open hardware certified. We're interested in expanding the community of like-minded people.

Our international event usually has around 300 attendees from around the world, you can find past schedules here, here, and here (and for the past 10+ years).

Before the event, get involved, sign up for our newsletter, or drop us an email!
