X is even more officially a propaganda tool now, so good time to get more active on Mastodon.

A bad week in many regards, but also a good one! I spent it with a multidisciplinary group of #academic and #practitioner researchers talking about #opensource at the #OFASymposium a conference organized by my @OpenForumEurope colleagues and I.

It rocked! Stay tuned for the recordings, presentations, and papers, and for the dates for our next conference. It’s in a cool place, I promise!

Our afternoon for the #OFASymposium 2024 began with a special treat for attendees – Henry Chesbrough, the 'Father of #OpenInnovation' talked about the past and future of open innovation in conversation with Clare Dillon.

Attendees are now learning more about open innovation, #OpenData & #SupplyChain dependencies in the OS Economics track, as well as #DigitalPublicGoods, #DigitalCommons, and institutional uses of OS in the OS for the #PublicSector track.
