E19: Amanda Brock, state of OSS in UK, the Open Invention Network & defensive patents and

In this episode, I chat with Amanda Brock, the CEO of Open UK. Amanda is a key driver of open source in the UK as she coordinates technology, business, and industry. I think this podcast will be useful to anyone who wants to know more about the state of open source in the UK and Europe. Some of the other interesting topics we cover include: The Open Invention Network which is the largest patent licensing community in the world for open source software The importance of defensive patent strategies for enterprises And how contributing to open source communities gives a company power to influence the projects direction Link to the State of Open: The UK in 2021 report by Open UK: https://openuk.uk/stateofopen/ Follow OpenTeams on: Twitter: https://twitter.com/openteamsinc LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/openteams Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/openteamsinc Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/openteams/ Support this podcast by liking this video and subscribing to OpenTeams’ YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/2ZBPGnt You can also show support for this podcast by leaving a rating and review for the podcast on Apple Podcasts.
