Open Source Business Models – From Free Software to Profitable Ventures

Book Your Place

This event has now expired

In this talk, we will present a range of open source business models that start-ups and university spin-offs can use to build successful ventures. From proven approaches like dual licensing and open core to innovative models based on cloud services and community engagement, we will show how open source can be a powerful driver for sustainable growth.

We will also discuss how to choose the right open source license—and how that choice influences which business models are possible. Finally, we will address specific challenges faced by academic institutions when trying to turn research into open source-based businesses.

Join us to learn how to move from open innovation to real-world impact with the right combination of licensing strategy and business model.
