## Summary

Run a virtual conference using only open source tools to run the first Creative Freedom Summit in January 2023. The event will be run virtually using Hopin, an online conference platform that isn't open source but is friendly to open source. The Fedora Design Team ran the live, weekly video calls using PeerTube.
