DESCRIPTION:Linux Professional Institute (LPI) is pleased to support and participate in Latinoware 2026\, a premier event for free software and open technologies in Latin America. The FOSS event will take place October 14–16\, 2026\, in Iguazu Falls\, Paraná\, Brazil. \nNow in its 23rd edition\, the Latin American Congress on Free Software and Open Technologies brings together students\, professors\, professionals\, developers\, and open source enthusiasts to share knowledge\, exchange ideas\, explore open technologies\, and strengthen the free and open source software (FOSS) community in Brazil and beyond. \nLPI at Latinoware \nAs in all previous editions of Latinoware\, LPI Board Chair Emeritus Jon “maddog” Hall will participate in this year’s event. He will present\, sharing his vision for the future of digital freedom\, with a focus on free hardware.

The contest challenged students to create videos demonstrating free software projects and exploring why people might be interested in the solutions they offer and how students could use them to make money working part time while they attend university. \nThe winner(s) of the contest will be announced at Latinoware 2026 on October 14. LPI Board Chair Emeritus Jon “maddog” Hall will join the winners on stage during the event. Prizes include LPI exam vouchers and exam discounts. \nJoin the Open Source Community in Brazil \nLatinoware is a great place to connect with members of the thriving open source community in Brazil\, especially students and educators.
