OpenCon 2018 Highlights

In October 2018, we held the fifth OpenCon meeting in Toronto, Canada. OpenCon 2018 included a diverse set of panels, regional workshops, unconference sessions, and our second 'do-a-thon'. We've collected them all below for you to explore and share. You can also find a full Youtube playlist here.
