Turning Policies, Standards, and Governance Into Enablers for Open-Source Innovation

Learn how to transform organizational policies, standards, and governance from perceived barriers into strategic enablers for open-source innovation in this 18-minute conference talk. Discover practical approaches for reframing traditional compliance obstacles as streamlined "guardrails" that facilitate both consumption and contribution to open-source projects, particularly within regulated industries where leveraging open-source technology can be challenging. Explore strategies for creating governance frameworks that drive innovation while maintaining necessary oversight, and understand how to build organizational structures that support active participation in the open-source ecosystem rather than merely consuming it.
