Lay the groundwork for going open source

The Open Charity event was held on the 3rd October in the new Deliveroo offices near Cannon St. We sat down on exquisite beanbags in the swanky basketball court and listened to two talks about using Open Source in charitable organisations.

Dama Sathianathan, EmpowerHack

The first talk was by Dama Sathianathan of Bethnal Green Ventures, EmpowerHack. It was entitled "How to lay the groundwork to go open source and not die".

EmpowerHack is a voluntary organisation working on sustainable humanitarian tech. Open source tech and open principles are core to what they are. The talk centred around getting partners onboard, including some tips on how to get stakeholders on your side.
