• An expo hall packed with the latest OCP hardware and software offerings
• many opportunities for attendees to network with your peers in the industry

The Theme for this year's summit is Open.Together.

The worldwide demand for cloud computing represents very large challenges ahead.  The resources and investments to meet these challenges may seem overwhelming at times and too large for any one company or organization to address on their own.    But people, companies, and organizations have shown that working together achieves better and faster results, has a much bigger impact, and accelerates the technologies necessary to meet these global challenges.  We are Enhancing lives through collaboration around the Globe. We are Open. Together.    

• People working together thru the various collaboration and OCP Project and Sub-Project teams, many of which were launched this past year.   
• Our Member Companies are working together to advance technology, security, sustainability, and other social responsibilities, 
• The Open Compute Project Foundation is collaborating with Linux Foundation, Telecom Infra Project, various standards organizations, and MSA groups to work efficiently and reduce duplicate efforts. 
• Corporations & Governments are working together such as HPC, DOE, RISE (NL), EURO EXA (Euro Exo scale), Energy Star program, CARB, and other Energy conservation programs.
• Global Communities are coming together to exchange ideas, address local needs and work together as a cohesive entity to address demands on environment, culture and people.

As a community, we are enriching the technological landscape and contributing back to society. This social impact and this positive energy is what makes us Open. Together.
