Innovation & Sun

As a company that was founded over 26 years ago by four young developers at Stanford University, Sun Microsystems knows first hand what young technologists can create and the change they can drive. That's why Sun worked with the Institute for the Future to conceive and create the The Digital Open: An Innovation Expo for Global Youth.

From Buenos Aries to Beijing to Budapest, Sun engages schools, teachers and students to discover the transformative power of open technology and works directly with youth on the front lines of remarkable technological and societal shifts. As a leading contributor of open source code and longtime supporter of open technologies, Sun encourages global youth to take part in the Digital Open competition and to join the community to create, connect and make friends with students from around the world.

So welcome and start exploring the frontiers of free and open innovation!
