Feed items | Open Source for Business

OS4B Yorkshire Employers Forum

This is a sub-group of the OS4B project. It is designed for Business Owners and Upper level Managers to feed back into the project how to gain the best from our development money by informing the project where there is a shortage of skills.

The focus of this group is about leveraging the benefits for Open Source for their Business.

It is not a private group and exists as a virutal group as well as a physical group. There will be quarterly meetings for the members to meet and discuss matters of an open source and provide their feedback. Some time will also be given to reflecting on what the group has raised discussed through the online forum.

Would you like to join?

Hi All,

I'm dropping you a line because you attended (or nearly attended!) the
