The State of Sustainability | The Future of Open Source
Two years ago, we co-hosted our first Future of Open Source event together with GitHub Sponsors. Six maintainers helped us consider the question, “Is it sustainable?” Much has happened since then, and it’s time to check in again on the state of sustainability in Open Source.
This time, we discussed the topic from the point of view of funders. Chad Whitacre, Sentry’s Head of Open Source and a core contributor to FOSS Funders, was joined by Kara Sowles Deloss, who runs the GitHub Accelerator and other programs, and Fiona Krakenbürger of the Sovereign Tech Fund. They discussed their respective approaches to finding and funding Open Source.
This session is for you if you are:
- an Open Source maintainer who wants to learn about new funding programs
- a decision maker at a company who wants to support Open Source
- a digital infrastructure policy maker in government
- a developer with an interest in Open Source sustainability
