Help shape the future of open source in Europe

GitHub emphasizes the importance of open source as a driver of innovation, security, and economic competitiveness, highlighting the European Union's initiative to develop an open source strategy called "Towards European Open Digital Ecosystems." This strategy aims to strengthen the EU's technological sovereignty by supporting open source software and hardware in key sectors such as AI, cloud computing, and cybersecurity, without introducing new laws. Instead, the EU seeks to create a strategic framework and funding measures to help the open source sector scale up and become more competitive. GitHub advocates for this support and highlights the potential for open source projects to become successful businesses, while also acknowledging the importance of sustaining non-commercial open source components. The European Commission is calling for input from various stakeholders to shape this policy, with over 900 responses already received, and encourages further participation to ensure that future EU digital policy aligns with the needs of developers.
