More: https://25.foss-backstage.de/sessions... Speaker: Axel Thévenet The report's authors will present their analysis of open source policy developments across the EU. The study examines how open source technologies are being integrated into public sector operations, focusing on digital sovereignty, data privacy, and infrastructure control. The European Commission's Open Source Observatory (OSOR) has released a new report offering a qualitative analysis of open source policies across 15 European and non-European countries. This research highlights the increasing importance of open source technologies in the public sector, particularly in enhancing digital sovereignty, data privacy, and control over digital infrastructures. The report emphasises the role of cities, regions, and municipalities in driving open source adoption, as well as the emergence of innovative national policy mechanisms such as Open Source Programme Offices (OSPOs). International initiatives are also influencing national strategies, promoting concepts like Digital Public Goods and Digital Commons. This report marks a significant evolution in open source policy, reflecting a shift towards comprehensive and inclusive digital governance. In this talk, you will hear from the authors of the report on the in-depth analysis of open source policy trends across 15 countries. It underscores the growing role of open source technologies in the public sector, especially in enhancing digital sovereignty, data privacy, and control over critical infrastructures. The report highlights the importance of local governments, such as cities and regions, in adopting open source solutions due to their cost-effectiveness and adaptability. It also explores the emergence of innovative national policies, including the establishment of Open Source Programme Offices (OSPOs), and the impact of international initiatives promoting Digital Public Goods and Digital Commons. Over the past five years, open source policies have evolved significantly, moving from a focus on legal frameworks to comprehensive strategies involving diverse stakeholders. This report reflects a broader, more inclusive approach to digital governance, offering valuable insights for policymakers, public administrators, and the open source community. The presentation will be followed by a short Q&A. ### Follow us on Social Media and join the Community!
