SHARING & REUSE CONFERENCE 2019
The second edition of the Sharing & Reuse Conference will take place on 11 June 2019 in Bucharest, Romania. The event is organised by the ISA² Programme of the European Commission, under the Romanian Presidency of the Council of the EU. If you are interested in open source policies and strategies, and their implementation in EU countries, come and join us!
The event will gather representatives of the public and private sector such as policy and decision makers, legal professionals, procurers, IT managers, developers and open source enthusiasts. They will talk about their experience, challenges, and best practices in sharing and reusing software and IT services within public administrations.
The participants will have the opportunity to explore the ways of building and supporting open source communities and increasing the take-up of best solutions. The event will also address trends such as coding with citizens, co-creation or new approaches to open source security.
During the event, the Commission will announce the winners of the Sharing & Reuse Awards 2019. The contest will highlight the most innovative and impactful IT solutions for public administrations (both open source software and IT shared services).
