'''Oracle OpenWorld''' is an annual [[Oracle Corporation|Oracle]] convention for business decision-makers, IT management, and line-of-business end users. It is held in September in [[San Francisco]], [[California]]; [[New Delhi]], [[India]]; [[São Paulo]], [[Brazil]]; and [[Shanghai]], [[China]]. The world's largest conference for Oracle customers and technologists, Oracle OpenWorld San Francisco attracted some 60,000 visitors in 2014 and an additional 7 million were expected to follow the event online.<ref name=keynote-2014>{{cite web|url=http://www.sfgate.com/business/article/Mark-Hurd-delivers-keynote-as-Oracle-OpenWorld-5789037.php|title=Mark Hurd delivers keynote as Oracle OpenWorld opens|last=Evangelista|first=Benny|publisher=SFGate|date=30 September 2014|accessdate=9 October 2014}}</ref>
