Written by Grizz Griswold | 5/11/22 1:25 PM
In this episode of the podcast - Grizz sits down with Jevon Beckles of Scott Logic & Alexandra Stratigos of FINOS to discuss the forming of the FINOS DEI (Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion) Special Interest Group that has just been announced the FINOS Community - but has been around for years in other forms. We also discuss inclusion of all the humans into this niche of open source technology in financial services and fintech - but also how to be more inclusive of non-developer types into this community as well.
