Open source remains a disruptive force in the software industry. Having moved beyond its early roots in academia and as a driver for social change, open source is now playing a role in traditional software markets, as a driver of transformation, or in some cases, a source of new competition.
This presentation will take a look at the impact that open source is having on software vendors, end users and the investment community; where it fits and where it still struggles to provide value; the role of commercialization; and the outlook for open source moving forward.
