Open Source – Perfect Tools for Digitalisation in the Public Sector
How is the TYPO3 Open Source Content Management linked with your University? We invite you to join our upcoming online event presented by the TYPO3 Open-Source Content Management Community, focusing on the transformative power of open source tools in the public sector.

This event will introduce a third way: leveraging freely available open source tools and communities to foster local innovation and independence.
