Adopting open-source ways of working inside an enterprise can unlock innovation, improve collaboration, and boost engineering efficiency. But scaling this approach across teams isn’t easy—siloed functions, governance challenges, and cultural resistance often get in the way. That’s where InnerSource comes in.
InnerSource brings the principles of open source—transparency, shared ownership, and merit-based contribution—into the enterprise. This session explores how organizations can successfully implement InnerSource practices across teams and platforms, and embed them into their engineering culture.
We’ll cover:
✅ What InnerSource is and how it differs from traditional open source
✅ Principles and practices to encourage cross-team contribution and collaboration
✅ Governance models, contribution workflows, and tooling needed to support scale
✅ Real-world case studies and lessons learned from successful InnerSource rollouts
✅ Strategies for overcoming resistance, aligning incentives, and balancing business goals
Whether you’re starting your InnerSource journey or scaling an existing effort,
