Did you miss it? Check out @openforumeurope.org's latest report, where myself and co-authors call for an #EU Sovereign Tech Fund. With the absence of #OpenSource funding in the ongoing #MFF negotiations, it's important that the EU funds OSS maintenance and security work. eu-stf.openforumeurope.org

Check out my latest in @techpolicypress.bsky.social, where I discuss our newly launched report on the case for an EU-wide version of the Sovereign Tech Fund! #OpenSource powers nearly all modern #software, undergirding the entire project of #European #digitalisation. It's time we fund it as such.

Was great to host a panel on Open Source Skills in the AI Era yesterday as part of the #UNOpenSourceWeek! Looking forward to the rest of the week, connecting with folks working across the #OpenSource ecosystem. If you’re in NYC, get in touch!

Still time to submit a proposal to the OFA Symposium 2025 by EOD on 18 June! We'll be curating a great lineup of presentations on #OpenSource and #OpenTechnology impact #research. And travel support is available for speakers! Submit now or regret later ✨ symposium.openforumeurope.org

Registration for #NGIForum2025 is live! If you can't make it to NYC for #UNOpenSourceWeek, head to #Brussels, 19–20 June for a deep dive into the future of the #Internet. @ngicommons.bsky.social is opening the forum w/ two key sessions on #DigitalCommons! 👉 Sign up: commons.ngi.eu/event/ngi-fo...

Yesterday, I got to moderate a panel about #OSPOsForGood at #FOSSback in #Berlin! Great to share more about the work we did last year and this year’s upcoming conference. Register your interest for the #UNOpenSourceWeek this summer, which will be the week of 16 June: www.un.org/digital-emer...

I joined OFE as a #PolicyAdvisor about a year ago next week and it was a great decision. Open source policy is niche but needs more passionate people. Our team is small but mighty, and I can promise you it's a great place to work. Apply soon, you won't regret it! #Job #Career #OpenToWork #Advert

I am at #FOSDEM25 this weekend? Are you? Will shortly be talking at 12:25 in the "Open Source in the European Legislative Landscape and Beyond" devroom, talking about Digital Commons as Pillars of Digital Sovereignty in Europe. Come check it out in AW1.120 or live on the website! lnkd.in/eKiB7zxD

I'm moving to #Vienna soon, but will be continuing my work with @openforumeurope.org from the continent, living in an actual EU Member State 😄 It would be great to connect with more #OpenSource, #DigitalGovernment, or #EUpolicy folks working in #Austria. If you want to connect, please let me know!

The first #EUOpenSourceAcademy #webinar is happening online tomorrow on #BigBlueButton! 👩‍💻 If you haven't registered yet, join us for a panel discussion on #OpenSourceAI, where I will be introducing the work of the Academy beforehand! Register here 👉 lnkd.in/dyAZbjvz

Check out our new article over on @ngicommons.bsky.social! In it, @emryss.bsky.social and I try to disentangle Europe’s relationship with #DPI and talk about the potential of #DigitalCommons for a #European approach to DPI. #DigitalPublicInfrastructure #DigitalSovereignty #EUPolicy bit.ly/3DugM6V

Open protocol, take two

I spent this week with a multidisciplinary group of #academic and #practitioner researchers talking about #opensource at the OFA Symposium. It rocked! Stay tuned for the recordings, presentations and papers, and for more info on the dates for OFE’s next OFA event. It’s in a cool place, I promise!

Through my new role at OpenForum Europe, I am working with our NGI Commons colleagues to investigate the role of #DigitalCommons in the European #digital landscape. We're hosting a workshop in Amsterdam on 5 June to learn more and help shape our policy work! Join us! commons.ngi.eu/event/ngi-co...
