[Everything Open]

Tickets to Everything Open 2023 are now on sale, and the schedule has

## Schedule

We would like to thank everyone who submitted a proposal to our Call for 
Sessions.
Our Session Selection Committee has reviewed all of these and selected 
over 50 presentations to be held during the conference.
It has been encouraging to see the variety of topics proposed by members 
of the community and we are looking forward to the presentations - there 
is certainly something for everyone!

Our schedule is now available for your perusal at 
https://2023.everythingopen.au/schedule/.
We will be running Lightning Talks on the Thursday afternoon, with talk 
submissions open at the event.
Further details on our events will be published closer to the

## Open Hardware Workshop and Social Event

The Open Hardware team are putting on a special event on Monday 13 
March, the day before the conference opens (a public holiday in 
Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia and Australian Capital Territory). 
This event is an all day workshop for the OHMC 2022 hardware, held at 
the Melbourne HackerSpace (CCHS).
The morning session will be based on prepared material about the 
hardware, the software, how to develop on and use your SwagBadge / 
Rockling FPGA. The afternoon session will be open ended, supporting 
development using your new kit.

Also on that Monday, from late afternoon, an Everything Open social 
event will be held at the HackerSpace and potentially overflowing on to 
the nearby Hawthorn Hotel into the evening. Everyone is welcome to 
attend this event, regardless of whether you attended the workshop 
during the day.

Everyone who has a SwagBadge 2021 is encouraged to bring it along to 
Everything Open, because it is largely compatible with SwagBadge 2022, 
especially regarding microPython, ESP32 and the Simple-Add-On (SAO) 
boards. It will be great to see people putting these to use during the 
event!

If you are interested in either of these events, we encourage you to 
fill out the Open Hardware 2023 event form to help with planning -

## Volunteering

We still have spaces available for volunteers during the conference.
As Everything Open is a community-focused, grassroots conference, it 
requires the support of volunteers to make the event possible.
Please see the volunteers page at 
https://2023.everythingopen.au/attend/volunteer/ for full details and to 
apply.


## Sponsorship

We have a wide range of sponsorship opportunities available. In addition 
to sponsoring the conference overall, there are a number of 
opportunities to contribute towards specific parts of the event.
