Oaisys 2025 is a two-day gathering built around one idea: progress through practice, bringing together people who design, build, and apply AI in ways that make systems more useful, open, and human.
On 29–30 November in Pune, engineers, designers, and researchers will meet for talks, sprints, and sessions shaped by real projects and shared learning. It’s a space to exchange ideas, test methods, and explore how collaboration can make technology more meaningful in everyday use.
Oaisys is built on community — people who learn and create together.
It’s a place for thoughtful discussion, practical exploration, and collective effort that turns ideas into working systems. It also reflects how open-source and AI communities in Asia are growing — sharing knowledge, building together, and shaping technology with intent and purpose.
And, why would this matter?
AI is now part of how we build, design, and decide. The question is, how do we apply it with clarity and purpose?
Progress happens when knowledge is shared. It needs spaces where experimentation meets community — where builders learn from one another in the open.
Oaisys was created to be that space: grounded, collaborative, and shaped by practitioners who care about how things are create.
Keynote
Marcus Johansson and James (Jamie) Abrahams from FreelyGive will lead the Drupal AI Code Sprint and keynote sessions at Oaisys 2025.
Both have been deeply involved in Drupal’s work with AI, shaping how open systems evolve through shared experimentation. Their sessions will focus on what’s being created, how it’s coming together, and how the Drupal community can participate in this progress.
The Code Sprint is a hands-on space for contributors and developers to explore Drupal AI — setting up tools, writing code, and learning through real implementations. It’s an opportunity to collaborate, share ideas, and move forward together.
Workshops and sprints
The sessions at Oaisys are made for people who learn by building.
Across two days, participants will join talks, sprints, and collaborative sessions centered on applied AI in practice. Each activity invites open participation — seeing how ideas are tested, refined, and translated into working systems.
From focused builds to informal discussions, every part of the event encourages practical exploration and shared thinking. It’s a place to connect with peers solving similar challenges and to gain a grounded view of how applied AI is taking shape.
Conversations and collaboration
Beyond the structured sessions, Oaisys makes room for open dialogue and exchange.
Panel discussions, show-and-tell sessions, and Birds of a Feather meetups bring together people from different disciplines to reflect on what’s real, what’s changing, and what’s next. The format is fluid — participants shape the conversations they want to have.
Whether it’s a discussion around Drupal AI, an exploration of open architectures, or an impromptu breakout, these moments often spark new ideas and collaborations that extend beyond the event.
A growing community
Oaisys marks the beginning of a broader effort to connect people working with applied AI across Asia. It’s a space to stay in touch, share what’s being learned, and keep building together long after the event ends.
The goal is simple: to strengthen a community where progress is shared and every experiment, no matter the scale, contributes to how AI evolves next.
