Open World Forum 2011: Open Source is Good for Industry, Gaël Blondelle (OBEO)
Open Source for Industrial Users

For several years, Open Source has proven it is good for IT. And thanks to Linux and Android, Open Source is everywhere in your environment from you mobile phone to your DVD recorder.

But the next frontier is to use Open Source in industries like Automotive or Aerospace. It is noticeable that those industries do not choose Open Source for cost reasons, but mainly to foster collaboration, innovation and to ensure durability. As such, large industry players design a new era for Open Source.

This presentation will highlight the key trends driving the adoption of Open Source by Industry, and how this adoption is supported by OSS foundations and consortiums.
