We’re very excited to announce our keynote speakers for the Nextcloud Conference, scheduled to start on September 16 at the Technical University Berlin. On Saturday, Jane Silber, CEO of Canonical will open our event while Sunday Karen Sandler, Executive Director at the Software Freedom Conservancy will speak. Both are well known in the open source community and we look forward to hearing them share their experiences and ideas! Friday evening, after our Focus day around enterprise and large scale Nextcloud usage, we organize a ‘launch event’ which will feature a new Nextcloud product we have developed together with two partners. What it is? You’ll find out on the 16th!
Introducing Karen Sandler
Karen Sandler
Karen Sandler is the executive director of the Software Freedom Conservancy, former executive director of the GNOME Foundation, an attorney, and former general counsel of the Software Freedom Law Center. Columbia Law School graduate, Karen has extensive legal experience with open source licenses as well as keen insight in community involvement. While executive director at the GNOME foundation, she kickstarted the Outreachy project which has since grown in scope beyond women in GNOME, supporting various minorities getting involved in a wide range of Free and Open Source communities through sponsored internships. Karen will discuss what makes open source projects so successful – licensing, technology and people have come together in a way which has transformed the world. What makes it tick?
“We are very excited to have Karen deliver an address at the Nextcloud Conference. Diversity is key to innovation and maintaining a healthy project“, noted Frank Karlitschek, managing Director at Nextcloud, “while the legal insights Karen brings to the table is no less central to the longevity of projects. This is all about looking forward!”
