The past 2 weeks have been a marathon of meaningful conversations for @ldubost , our CEO.
From the @apell Conference in Warsaw to @ow2 con in Paris and the NGI Forum in Brussels, he has been out there sharing what we do at XWiki and @CryptPad and why it matters.
Events like these are a space to connect with fellow open source builders, advocates for digital sovereignty, and those rethinking what sustainable software in Europe can look like.
We’re at the NGI Forum in Brussels today!
Ludovic Dubost, our CEO, is taking part in the Impact Stories Roundtable to talk about what it really means to build open-source tools that prioritize ethics, privacy, and user control.
From CryptPad to WAISE, we’re tackling big challenges with a strong belief in digital sovereignty and sustainable innovation. If you're attending, come say hi. We’d love to connect and chat about the future of open tech in Europe.
How do you modernize a massive, multilingual encyclopedia?
On June 24, join us and the Historical Dictionary of Switzerland (HLS) for a live session on how they rebuilt their entire knowledge platform using XWiki.
We’ll talk real workflows, real challenges, and what happens when open source meets complex publishing needs.

How does your team really deal with messy docs?
Let’s be honest, outdated documentation sneaks up on everyone. But how we handle it says a lot about our processes (or lack thereof 
).
We built XWiki to make structured, sustainable documentation the norm — not the afterthought.
So, what’s your cleanup strategy?
Did you know the Historical Dictionary of Switzerland rebuilt their multilingual encyclopedia with XWiki?
36,500+ articles. 4 languages. Editorial workflows. Jira integration. All powered by EU-based open source.
We wrote about how they did it, and what others can learn.

Values matter. Transparency, autonomy, collaboration. They’re essential.

Notion or Confluence?
Maybe the right answer is: None of the above.
We laid out the facts, side-by-side, and introduced a flexible, open-source solution at the end.

European open source deserves the spotlight
Choosing local, open alternatives means you stay in control, not some global megacorp.
If digital sovereignty matters to you (and it should), now’s the time to support the ecosystem.
We’ve put together a list of EU-built tools that respect your rights and your data.
Why are companies choosing XWiki over proprietary tools?
Here are 3 quick reasons: 
You own your data. XWiki is open source — no lock-in, full control. It adapts to you. Fully customizable to fit your knowledge base needs. Teamwork made easy. Built-in versioning, commenting & access control.
Your knowledge deserves better.
