The rapid pace of innovation is accelerating, and the role of open technologies and methodologies (i.e., open source software, open AI, open data, open collaboration, etc.) have become increasingly critical to enable company competitiveness. Open Source Program Offices (OSPOs) have emerged as a best practice to facilitate company collaboration and innovation with open source software, yet this org pattern is flexible and scalable to other “opens”. Come explore how organizations can adapt their OSPOs to be Open Program Offices (OPOs) and respond to rapid advancements in openness, especially for open community AI.

In particular, we’ll discuss:
- How to optimize the OPO organization for AI – what is different and what is leverageable
- Practical approaches for embedding openness of all kinds into your organization
- Where best to locate an OPO in an organization and the implications of the options
- Extending to open standards and open hardware
- How to drive org alignment and shape your open strategy

Openness is more than a philosophy—it’s a competitive advantage for the future of AI and for community development of any size.
