The Source of an Open Future

The open-source ecosystem has changed considerably in the last two years, especially due to strategic acquisitions of major players, fundamental alterations to key license frameworks, the impact of major cloud providers and the growth in GenAI code development.

The May Enterprise Tech Monthly event will bring together prominent executives from the European Open-Source ecosystem for a uniquely insightful discussion about the challenges and opportunities faced by the open-source movement, with the knock-on implications for longstanding dynamics between the community and enterprise software buyers.

We're privileged to announce that Shay Bannon (CTO & Co-Founder of Elastic) and will be joined by an esteemed panel of industry experts, including:

• Gerald Pfeffer (CTO at SUSE)

These discussions will be moderated by Faraaz Samadi (Partner at Orrick).

In addition, there will be a community talk by the FINOS Foundation and a series of flash talks by innovative companies.
