FOSDEM 2026
January 31 – February 1 Europe/Belgium
FOSDEM 2026 will take place at the Université libre de Bruxelles, Belgium, on Saturday, January 31st and Sunday, February 1st, 2026. If you’re building, breaking, or bending open source forensic tools—or just doing weird and wonderful things in the world of digital forensics—we want to hear from you.
Whether you’re hacking on memory parsers, wrangling cloud artifacts, reverse‑engineering obscure formats, or just have a good war story from the trenches, this is the place to share it. Funny titles encouraged, demos welcome, and yes—if you’ve ever dropped chain of custody or Locard’s exchange principle into casual conversation, you’ll feel right at home
