Logo Call openSUSE.Asia Summit

We are excited to announce the openSUSE.Asia Summit 2025 Logo Competition!

A logo is more than just a design—it represents the spirit, identity, and energy of the event. Every year, the summit logo reflects the unique, diverse, and dynamic communities of the host country.

This time, the openSUSE.Asia Summit 2025 will be held in Faridabad, India, bringing together open-source enthusiasts, developers, and contributors from across Asia. We invite creative minds to design an outstanding logo for this year.

The competition is now open! As a token of appreciation, the winning design receives a special prize from the summit committee.
