The State of Open Source in Europe: From Passion, to Prioritization

17 hours 20 minutes ago

When the first World of Open Source: Europe Spotlight 2022 report was published in Dublin at the time we launched Linux Foundation Europe, it painted a picture of a continent with an undeniable passion for open source — a “romantic” relationship, as our researchers called it. European contributors were motivated by learning and enjoyment more than career advancement. Policies across governments encouraged consumption of open source, and industry leaders recognized its value. However, beneath this enthusiasm, a structural imbalance was clear. Organizations were consuming more open source than they were contributing back, and many sectors, in particular the public sector, lagged in fully embracing open collaboration.
