Call for participation FSCONS 2015, Gothenburg, 7‒8 Nov


The Free Society Conference and Nordic Summit (FSCONS) is a meeting place for social change, focused on the intersection between technology, culture and society. FSCONS is organised according to the principles laid out in our Manifesto, a living document accepted by the society’s members at the yearly meeting.

The conference brings together people from a wide range of fields, and merges the technical with the social, seeking both to activate and challenge. Open discussion and brainstorming are as important as the talks given during the conference.
