Open Source Summit Europe 2024

At this year’s Open Source Summit Europe, we are excited to share the comprehensive early steps of our journey of establishing our own Open Source Program Office (OSPO) within our corporation. From the initial steps of crafting foundational policies to overseeing compliance with open source licenses, our narrative provides a detailed roadmap for others embarking on a similar path. We will delve into our strategic approaches to tracking employee contributions to open source projects and the intricacies involved in releasing our first open source projects. Our presentation will highlight how integrating open source practices extends beyond enhancing innovation and efficiency in software development. We underscore the alignment with our company's core values, particularly in sustainability—not only in the environmental sense but also in fostering a sustainable technological ecosystem. We will explore how participating in open source projects is pivotal to both advancing corporate innovation and upholding commitments to sustainable practices that resonate with our broader corporate ethos.
