of European excellence in Open Source

Leading innovation, fostering collaboration, and guiding policy for a thriving open source ecosystem.

  • Recognises European leaders in the annual European Open Source Awards.
  • Organises Masterclass Workshops and CEO Roundtables.
  • Acts as a brain trust for European policy making in open source.
