UPCOMING EVENTS

October 20-23, 2026. Hosted at Atelier National de Recherche Typographique (ANRT)

Unicode Technology Workshop (UTW 2026)

Description

Building on the success of UTW 2023–2025 in the heart of Silicon Valley, California, UTW 2026 brings that same spirit of openness, innovation, and in-person collaboration to the heart of Europe’s design and research ecosystem. UTW 2026 – Unicode in the World – marks the Consortium’s return to Europe. Just 90 minutes from Paris, Nancy’s rich design and cultural heritage offers an ideal setting for a gathering focused on the technologies that enable global communication and collaboration.

For four days, UTW 2026 will convene global experts across engineering, localization, type design, academia, user-experience design, and cultural preservation for an immersive program of cutting-edge tutorials, talks, and community building.

Join us for four days of deep learning, collaboration, and creativity, including:

  • Advanced Tutorials on Unicode technologies, CLDR, ICU/ICU4X, internationalization patterns, locale data, text rendering, input methods, script shaping, and global-ready engineering.
  • Talks & Panels featuring leading researchers, engineers, designers, and implementers of multilingual digital systems.
  • Exhibitions showcasing works in type design, script digitization, multilingual UX, writing-system innovation, and language-technology projects from around the world.
  • Networking & Community Gatherings with speed networking, hallway conversations, evening meet-ups, and opportunities to connect with practitioners shaping global text and language technology.
