eventsrss eventsrss en Open Source Think Tank 2009 http://www.onehippo.com/en/events/2009/03/Open+Source+Think+Tank+2009.html The 2009 Open Source Think Tank event is structured as a “think tank”--not as a typical industry conference. This touchstone event is composed of group activities, brainstorming sessions, CIO Panels and group networking/social events. The purpose of the Think Tank is for all segments of the open source industry to openly share their concerns, issues, experiences, and common problems, while collaboratively developing solutions.

Who is invited?

This event is an invitation-only conference for CEOs, CIOs, CTOs, legal experts, investors and other senior executives. It will be a working conference and all participants are expected to actively contribute. It is our commitment to all attendees that every participant is knowledgeable about the commercial aspects of open source and are in leadership positions in their organizations with regard to open source strategy and use. We regret that we cannot extend invitations to those that wish to attend but lack the requisite experience or authority within their organization.

This conference has been specifically designed to facilitate thought provoking discussions and contribution from all industry segments. This is accomplished with a mixed set of activities each day, consisting of Group Sessions, Brainstorming Teams, CIO Panels and Organized Networking and Social Activities.

How do we evolve open-source business models to ensure vendors get paid without resorting to the same lock-in tactics that the proprietary world has used? And how do we hedge against patent trolls and other parasites on the open-source community?

Please join use in San Francisco for the sixth year of OSBC. Over the course of two days, keynotes from the best and brightest IT minds--spanning the open source big guns to mission-critical enterprise IT operations-- will preview the future of open source by revealing how it is already being used by the industry's top enterprises and vendors to push the envelope on innovation while coming in under budget. Plus, our staple sessions will help open-source projects discover customer-friendly business strategies and enable legal professionals to assist in their clients' adoption of open source.

Track highlights:

  • Open Sourcing the Enterprise for the CIO/CTO
  • Open Sourcing the Enterprise for the CEO/CMO
  • Open Sourcing the Enterprise for the General Counsel
  • Open Sourcing the Enterprise: Products & Services
