Postponed Event: The organizers have made a strategic decision to postpone this event. TYPO3 and the TYPO3 Community Expansion Committee are looking forward to announce our presence at the next opportunity.

The Transform Africa Summit describes itself as Africa’s leading annual forum for collaboration on new ways of shaping, accelerating and sustaining Africa’s ongoing digital revolution. The event caters to global and regional leaders from government, business and international organizations.

The summit is organized by Smart Africa, an alliance formed around the Smart Africa Manifesto, a commitment to provide leadership in accelerating socio-economic development through ICT. The manifesto has been endorsed by all heads of state and governments in the African Union.

For TYPO3, this event is a great opportunity to strengthen existing collaboration with governments in Africa and create interest and engagement around the TYPO3 Community Expansion Committee's work in the Global South. With knowledge transfer, using our democratic and not-for-profit open-source CMS as a basis, we can foster local sustainable and independent business. Our vehicle is projects with government websites and digital governance, as exemplified by our project for Open Source Standardization of Government Websites in Rwanda and recent project with the Government of Somalia.

TYPO3 will be present with our own booth, represented by TYPO3 Project Ambassador Mathias Bolt Lesniak, TYPO3 Community Expansion Committee Lead Daniel Homorodean, and TYPO3 Community Expansion Committee Member Philippe Fekete.

Visit us to learn more about the latest innovations in the world of open source CMS and meet some of our Official Partners who will be joining us at the conference.

Contao Konferenz is an annual German-language conference organized by the Contao CMS community with support from the Contao Association.

Contao is a PHP-based open-source CMS, just like TYPO3. The structure and backend experience differs, but, under the hood, our two communities solve web publishing and content management with similar tools and third-party dependencies. Contao Konferenz is a place to meet, exchange ideas, and discuss solutions to the challenges faced by open source software today.

TYPO3 Association Board Secretary Martin Helmich will be present at the event.

Smart Country Convention is a three-day congress and expo with workshops and networking in Berlin, Germany. Calling itself “the leading event for the digital state and public services,” it is the largest of its kind in the country.

For the TYPO3 project, the event’s focus on the public sector, and the closely related topics of digitalization and digital sovereignty, makes it a great platform to promote some of TYPO3 CMS's core features and use cases. For the german government specifically, 2024’s launch of the TYPO3-based Government Site Builder (GSB) has the potential to take the country towards a new level of digital autonomy.

On the expo floor, TYPO3 will be present with a booth, manned with representatives from the TYPO3 Company and their partners.

Forum PHP is the French Association of PHP Users’ (AFUP) flagship event, and a major two-day event for the French PHP community. The French-language event is expected to gather up to 800 people. According to the event website, “the reputation of AFUP events enables us to invite the world's leading PHP experts.”

AFUP was founded in year 2000, and organizes meetings and conferences to “promote the exchange of expertise and the dissemination of knowledge within the [PHP] community.”

For TYPO3, as a PHP-based content management system, this event is a chance to expand our network and create synergies with the PHP community at large. That's why TYPO3 Association board member Rachel Foucard and other French community members will be present at the TYPO3 booth. TYPO3 is also a silver sponsor.

TYPO3 is a PHP-based open-source CMS, just like Drupal. The structure and backend experience differs, but, under the hood, our two communities solve web publishing and content management with similar tools and third-party dependencies. DrupalCon is a place to meet, exchange ideas, and discuss solutions to the challenges faced by open source software today.

DrupalCon Barcelona is the largest Drupal event in Europe in 2025. The conference features seven tracks and numerous sessions over three days, 14–16 October, followed by the Contribution Day on 17 October.

The Drupal Association is the event organizer. They collaborate with the TYPO3 Association, Open Source Matters (Joomla), and WordPress Project in the Open Website Alliance. This conference will be a chance to strengthen the collaboration between Drupal and TYPO3.

TYPO3 Project Ambassador Mathias Bolt Lesniak will be present at the conference and speak about Digital Sovereignty by Design with Jeffrey A. “jam” McGuire.

JoomlaDay Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (or just JoomlaDay DACH) is the Joomla conference for these three German speaking countries, and the three local communities organize this event together.

Joomla is a PHP-based open-source CMS, just like TYPO3. The structure and backend experience differs, but, under the hood, our two communities solve web publishing and content management with similar tools and third-party dependencies. JoomlaDay DACH is a place to meet, exchange ideas, and discuss solutions to the challenges faced by open source software today.

Open Source Matters (OSM), the non-profit organization behind the Joomla project, collaborates with the TYPO3 Association, Drupal Association, and WordPress Project in the Open Website Alliance. Endorsed, but not organized by OSM, this conference will be a chance to strengthen the collaboration between Joomla and TYPO3.

TYPO3 Association Board Secretary Martin Helmich will be present at the event.
