‘The Unicode Consortium is pleased to announce Unicode Technology Workshop 2026 (UTW 2026) will take place from October 20-23, 2026 in historical and vibrant Nancy, France.
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, linguistics, localization, type design, academia, user-experience design, and cultural preservation for an immersive program of cutting-edge tutorials, talks, and community building.
Participants can join for Tutorial Days from October 20-21, Session Days from October 22-23, or for all four days. Special reduced rates are available for students and academics.
