Ways to join COSCUP 2023

(Jul 20 Updated)

Conference for Open Source Coders, Users & Promoters (COSCUP) is one of the largest open-source technology conferences in Taiwan, attracting thousands of participants every year and providing rich opportunities for sharing experiences and exchanging ideas. 

COSCUP 2023 will take place from July 29 to July 30 at NTUST, Taipei, Taiwan. This article summarizes a few ways you may be interested in participating in this fantastic year's event. 



👉 Attend as a participant

Anyone can participate in COSCUP as an attendee, and it's totally free! As a large-scale event like FOSDEM.org, no registration is required beforehand, you can just walk in and start your journey.

Participants can attend various sessions, talks, and workshops, learn about the latest open-source technology and trends, exchange experiences, and establish connections with other participants. Checkout:

For overseas participants:

  • Language: More than one hundred talks in English we have this year.
  • VISA: contact attendee@coscup.org for assistance. 
  • Accommodation: We don't have any specific recommendations for accommodation as the event is taking place in downtown Taipei, and it's easy to reach the venue via public transport from anywhere in the city within 30 minutes. You can explore various hotels on OTA platforms of your choice or try this one (without any warranty) if you're having difficulty deciding.
  • Social event and city tour: Check out two special BoFs for you -  1. Cross community Gathering 2. Taipei City Tour
Contact attendee@coscup.org for any questions or assistance.
