Greetings GNU Radio Community!
We are gearing up for GNU Radio Conference 2021, which will be held September 20-24, 2021. GRCon 2021 celebrates and showcases the substantial and remarkable progress of GNU Radio and its usage in a diverse field of applications and industries. It is a week-long conference that includes high-quality technical content and valuable networking opportunities. GRCon is a venue that highlights design, implementation, and theory that has been practically applied in a useful way. GRCon attendees come from a large variety of backgrounds, including industry, academia, government, and hobbyists. GRCon21 is fully setup to run in-person in Charlotte, North Carolina. However with COVID still a significant concern the decision of whether to confirm that setup or move entirely online will not be made until April. This will be the next major breakpoint where the organizing committee will evaluate on the current conditions and make decisions on what is safe and sensible. In either case the main track talks will be livestreamed similar to GRCon20. If in-person, Charlotte, NC - the home of NASCAR, is the perfect location to focus on the theme of SPEED: processing high rate high throughput data with GNU Radio and showcase many of the high performance platforms and applications that have been developed across our community.
