Open Source Connect India 2026
Open Source Connect India 2026 (OSCI'26) is one of India's largest open source event, bringing together developers, maintainers, startup founders, technology companies, and open source communities to learn, collaborate, and grow together.
Following a successful previous edition with 10,000+ registrations, 100+ mentors, and 50+ project admins, OSCI '26 continues its mission of strengthening India's open source ecosystem. This year, we're also placing a greater focus on helping grow the Indian open source startup ecosystem by creating opportunities for contributors, founders, startups, and communities to connect, collaborate, and build together.
Built around the idea of connecting contribution with opportunity, the initiative helps participants gain practical experience, contribute to real world open source projects, build meaningful professional relationships, and discover pathways to internships, careers, startups, and entrepreneurship.
