Hi all,
Rather shorter notice than usual, but we have the final speaker confirmed for this week's meeting of the BCS OSSG to which all OSHUG members are invited. We have three speakers looking at how to fund open source projects and businesses.
This is a joint meeting with BCS Entrepreneurs, BCS Young Professionals Group, BCS Women and OSHUG.
Full details here: https://ossg.bcs.org/blog/2018/05/15/funding-open-source-thursday-17-may-201...
Each talk will last 30 minutes and include plenty of time for questions. I look forward to seeing you there.
Talk 1: Thinking differently: new approaches to funding the development of open source conservation technologies
Alasdair Davies
An active conservationist and technologist all his working life, Alasdair Davies is combining his two passions with a third – openness – to bring affordable, customizable technology to the field through the Arribada Initiative. As a Shuttleworth Foundation Fellow, he is designing, developing and producing open source conservation technologies in partnership with leading wildlife charities such as WWF and the Zoological Society of London, employing open approaches and licences to drive down costs by introducing new community-based funding models.
Talk 2: Funding open – tactics and stories from civic tech
Irina Bolychevsky
Irina is passionate about products and using technology to make things better. She spent many years working on open data at Open Knowledge as one of the directors and ckan product owner, at web startups, and most recently as a data consultant for W3C, the Open Data Institute and the UK, Dubai and UAE governments. She co-founded redecentralize.org—a project to promote and bring together people working on and interested in decentralised digital technologies.
Talk 3: Other ways of funding open source
Ben Nickolls
Ben Nickolls is a software developer turned product manager building a sustainable source of funding for open source maintainers at Tidelift. He is an advisor to The Centre for Cultivation of Technology, The Ford Foundation, The Sloan Foundation and helps organise the annual open source sustainability conference Sustain.org and the Core Internet Infrastructure working group. In his spare times he rides bikes, designs boardgames and walks his dog.
I look forward to seeing you there.
Best wishes,
Jeremy

Hi,
Are the events being videoed? I'd like to listen to this but unlikely to be able to watch on-line (if that is an option!) and can't make it down there to the meeting.
Thanks,
Wesley.

Afternoon Jeremy,
Thank you. I have just had a search on youtube and can see your previous meetings uploaded by the "AB Open" Channel. Any other channels I should subscribe to in order to best keep up with this group?
Regards,
Wesley.

Hi Wesley,
We don't have a BCS OSSG channel, so they tend to go up on the channel of the person videoing, which is either AB Open (if Andrew Back is recording) or Embecosm (if I or one of my colleagues are recording). They should all be up with a CC-BY license, so feel free to share them elsewhere.
In a perfect world we'd have a BCS OSSG channel on YouTube, but that will probably wait until we get a volunteer to set it up :-)
Best wishes,
Jeremy
Regards,
Wesley.
