FLOSSIE 2013 brings together Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) women developers, entrepreneurs, researchers and policy-makers, digital artists and social innovators for an exciting mix of talks, spontaneous discussions and open workshops. It brings the benefits of open thinking to artist and entrepreneurs and the insights of diverse innovators to FLOSS development.

Flossie is a network of women interested in using FLOSS for digital arts, social innovation and creative projects – all things open from hardware and software to knowledge, data, research and education - and any activity which can be enhanced by openness.

Flossie organizes an annual conference as well as ad hoc workshop and hack-style events to share skills, talk about projects, or just get together and socialise. They also organise ad hoc events including hackdays, skills-sharing workshops and meetups.
