About the RIOT Summit
Over the last years, RIOT has emerged as one of the agile and state of the art operating system for the IoT. The previous Summits were a big success. It’s time to meet again!
The RIOT Summit aims for bringing together RIOTers, beginners and experts, as well as people interested in the IoT in general and decision makers who plan to deploy RIOT in the future.

The RIOT Summit: 2 days of great talks, tutorials, and demos + 1 hackathon day for IoT enthusiasts.
You want to give a talk or present a demo? Please submit!
More code. Friday is Hackathon Day.
The two days of RIOT Summit are followed by a one-day hackathon. This will give participants a chance to work together immediately on ideas developed during Summit discussions, to experiment with new technologies, or to follow up on break-out sessions and discussions of the RIOT Summit.
Unlike the RIOT Summit, this hackathon has little planned structure. We do plan to allow for lightning talk style summaries at the end to further interconnect hackathon participants.
