The Open Culture Foundation (OCF) is assisting the Students’ Information Technology Conference (SITCON) community in organizing the “SITCON 2027 Student Information Technology Conference.” The event aims to promote IT education and open-source culture through information technology exchanges and knowledge sharing. The conference is scheduled to take place on Saturday, March 13, 2027 (Year 116 of the Republic of China), at the Hall of Humanities and Social Sciences, Academia Sinica. Attendance is free, but advance registration and an admission ticket are required.
To reduce geographical and economic barriers for students participating in IT exchange activities, two special programs—the “Long-Distance Ticket” and the “Open Source Dream-Building Project”—have been planned for eligible students currently enrolled in school. Details are as follows:
(1) Long-Distance Ticket: Available to students enrolled in remote areas, offshore islands, and overseas. Upon successful review, applicants will receive conference admission, though no transportation or accommodation subsidies are provided.
(2) Open Source Dream-Building Project: Available to students enrolled in school who require transportation or accommodation subsidies. Upon successful review, applicants will receive conference admission and may apply for round-trip transportation and the pre-event night’s accommodation subsidy in accordance with project regulations.
Applicants must submit the required supporting documents and fill out the online application form in accordance with the regulations of each program. Once approved, applicants will be issued a conference registration invitation code and must complete official registration using the code by February 5, 2027 to secure conference admission. For eligibility criteria, review methods, quotas, and relevant schedules for each program, please refer to the official project announcements.
