Published February 14, 2013 | By knyrvin
Just after Digia acquired Qt from
Nokia, the KDE community suggested to run the Qt Contributors’ Summit together (Qt CS) with the KDE Akademy conference in Bilbao July 15-16 this summer. The conference will be at the Engineering School of Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea (EHU; The University of the Basque Country) in Bilbao.

Lars Knoll, the Qt Chief Maintainer & Digia, Qt CTO says: “I’m really pleased that we can co-organize Qt Contributors’ Summit with the annual KDE Akademy conference this year in Bilbao, Spain. By close co-operation we are combining community and professionals forces to
make both Qt and KDE even better”
More than 500 upstream and downstream developers will participate in this combined event which starts July 13 for both KDE and Qt contributors, and ends July 19. This includes key maintainers of both Qt and KDE projects, and top contributors. It will cover many areas of computing, ranging from core library functionality in Qt and KDE to popular user applications used by hundreds of millions of users, integrated with cloud services. All this in a highly productive atmosphere where we combine forces, exchange knowledge, and meet new contributors.
By co-hosting, KDE and the Qt Project will increase their existing Open Governance collaboration even further. Holding their annual conferences at the same time and the same place will foster interaction, knowledge transfer and technical progress. This in Bilbao, which is the beautiful capital of the province of Biscay in the Basque Country, Spain. The Engineering School and the Bilbao city are putting their forces together helping us in the community to be a great conference and contributors summit in 2013.
The entire budget of this event is funded by sponsors. Even if many are doing a lot of voluntary work, sponsrship are what makes Qt CS and the KDE conference happen. There will be sponsorship packages of all sizes. Info and
update on this will be provided soon.
You’ll be invited to this conference by a Qt contributor where also registration details will be provided. Registration of session(s) and other practicalities regarding the Qt CS 2013, is found at the Qt Project Web wiki: Qt Contributors’ Summit 2013.
