[NERDEARLA](https://nerdear.la/en/) is an event by nerds, for nerds. We attended our first NERDEARLA in Buenos Aires in September last year, and we loved it! [Pavel shared his experience](https://almalinux.org/blog/2024-12-18-volunteering-at-nerdearla/) of staffing the booth for AlmaLinux, and he and I got to get to know our new friend Luis.

 I also gave a talk at this event! You can watch it below, if you'd like.

We also had a lot of fun at our booth! Thank you to everyone who came by to see us. In case you missed it, we gave away a bunch of t-shirts and gave away some really cool prizes to people who showed up to our booth in their AlmaLinux swag.

### openSUSE.Asia and Open Source Summit Japan

The AlmaLinux user group in Japan has been busy this year as well, attending all kinds of events and even organizing AlmaLinux Day, Tokyo. They represented AlmaLinux at both openSUSE.Asia and Open Source Summit Japan. You can see the talk from some of the members (who also work for one of our platinum sponsors: Cybertrust Japan) on the Linux Foundation youtube channel.

### SFSCON

The South Tyrol Free Software Conference, [SFSCON](https://www.sfscon.it/), is one of Europe's most established annual conferences on Free Software. We had a great time meeting up with everyone who joined us there in Italy. I also participated in not 1, not 2, but 3 talks/workshops! One was [all about AlmaLinux](https://www.sfscon.it/talks/almalinux-in-brief/), the second was about [how to build a drama-free community](https://www.sfscon.it/talks/building-a-no-drama-community/), and the last was a [BOF workshop](https://www.sfscon.it/workshops/almalinux-bof/). We also got to enjoy some AlmaLinux cupcakes from Kiki Bakery Lab. Thank you to everyone who attended my sessions and came to say hi!

Jonathan gave a talk in which he discussed the evolution of Enterprise Linux in the last decade, the life of AlmaLinux in its first 3 years, and why we think freedom drives innovation.

### SC '24

[SC](https://sc24.supercomputing.org/) is an international conference for HPC, networking, storage, and analysis. We decided it was another great opportunity to spread the love with AlmaLinux swag, and some prizes! We gave away more than 800 t-shirts, and gave away more awesome prizes to folks who showed up to the booth in their swag.
