From astor at openforumeurope.org Tue Mar 23 19:38:44 2021 From: astor at openforumeurope.org (Astor Nummelin Carlberg) Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2021 20:38:44 +0100 Subject: [PublicPolicy] Event invite: OSPOs in Governments and Universities Message-ID: Dear all, Perhaps our upcoming event on OSPOs in governments and universities would be of interest to you. More information and registrations below. The establishment of Open Source Program Offices (OSPOs) to achieve open source goals is gaining momentum in the public sector, in academia and beyond and we see these developments on a city, regional, national and supranational level. This matters because the OSPO construct was a key enabler in unlocking vast amounts of value for the ICT industry. Now the question is how OSPOs in government can help deliver value for citizens and this event aims at addressing this question. March 31 17:00 - 18:30 CET Register Register The panelists will outline the state of thinking around institutionalising open source work in the academic and public sectors (and beyond) and discuss how different OSPO configurations can help institutions to respond to demands for greater transparency and trust in technology and public institutions, accelerate digital transformation and enhance the EU?s strategic autonomy in the digital field.
