David Wayne, Managing Director and Head of Electronic Trading and Strategic Analytics at Deutsche Bank, said, "Deutsche Bank contributed code to the Symphony Foundation because we believe that open source collaboration benefits the industry as a whole. Our clients are increasingly seeking flexible open source solutions and collaborating in this way can help us enhance our products and services while reducing costs."
Paul Walker, Technologist and Philanthropist, said, "The open source software movement is one of the more important and successful examples of collective problem solving that we've seen in our lifetimes. Communicating the benefits of open source effectively to non-technologists -- including those in financial services -- can be a challenge. I look forward to sharing my experience and my strategies for effective open source advocacy at OSSF."
The Open Source Strategy Forum is made possible by platinum sponsors BNY Mellon, Black Duck Software, GitHub, NodeSource, and Red Hat, and by gold sponsors Acquia, Flexera, The Open Compute Project Foundation and WhiteSource. Our media partners are The Linux Foundation and Rise New York.
The day prior to the conference, on November 7, NodeSource is hosting a one-day workshop in New York, covering a wide variety of best practices for building and deploying Node.js applications in production. Learn more and register here.
