Canonical’s story is closely linked to the communities that shape us, including the global community of open source contributors and enthusiasts who are part of our team.

Since 2004, we have nurtured a community around Ubuntu, a Linux distribution that leveled the playing field by making software accessible to everyone - whether you are a developer in Calcutta, an end user in Cape Town or a sysadmin in California. Today, we continue to build and grow communities around us, as we make open source secure, reliable and manageable at scale.

Together, we enable organizations and end users everywhere to innovate with confidence on the largest supported collection of open source software.
