There are numerous global challenges that compel consideration of how to improve on existing legacy models and create more humanised and trusted approaches. Openness, open cultures and emerging technologies can open up new ways of working and collaborating based on transparency, trust and community. In this session, using data collected from CIOs, heads of sectors, and other strategic roles, you’ll hear perspectives on what blocks open culture and use of open source, and what can be done to increase uptake. Specifically, we’ll look at: - The inhibitors to open culture in organizations - The sustainability of open source - What the future of open culture could look like - Recommendations for releasing the value hidden in your organization

We invite you to learn about the characteristics of open (transparency, collaboration, inclusivity, community and adaptability) that will empower you to leverage open source technologies and provide the cultural foundation for uplifting the capabilities within your organisation and people. You'll see the characteristics through various lenses, case studies, and applied practical tools.

These sessions explore topics such as NextGen EU, OSPOs, cross-collaboration challenges, inclusivity, and identifying intelligences to increase innovation and engagement amongst team members.
