As firms increasingly find ways to integrate Generative AI and agentic AI systems, the focus has shifted from if we can use AI to how we can use it responsibly and securely. FINOS, through its open source initiatives, has been a leading voice in establishing frameworks to guide financial institutions in this evolving landscape. ## [2026 Q2 FINOS All Community Call](https://www.finos.org/blog/2026-q2-finos-all-community-call) May 28, 2026 [FINOS Team](https://www.finos.org/blog/author/finos-team) [Leave a comment](https://www.finos.org/blog/2026-q2-finos-all-community-call#comments-listing) [![](https://www.finos.org/hubfs/All%20Community%20Calls/2026%20-%20All%20Community%20Calls/2026%20Q2%20FINOS%20All%20Community%20Call.png)](https://www.finos.org/blog/2026-q2-finos-all-community-call) Join us for a recap of our 2026 Q2 All Community Call, where we shared exciting updates from across the FINOS ecosystem!

That's not a retreat — it's an RFI window. ## [Reclaiming Idle Infrastructure: Announcing 5-Spot, a Cloud-Native Machine Scheduler](https://www.finos.org/blog/announcing-5-spot-cloud-native-machine-scheduler) April 24, 2026 [FINOS Team](https://www.finos.org/blog/author/finos-team) [Leave a comment](https://www.finos.org/blog/announcing-5-spot-cloud-native-machine-scheduler#comments-listing) [![](https://www.finos.org/hubfs/Projects%20+%20SIGs/5-Spot/5-Spot%20Contribution%20Image.png)](https://www.finos.org/blog/announcing-5-spot-cloud-native-machine-scheduler) At the first **Open Source in Finance Forum (OSFF) Toronto**, the FINOS community announced a major expansion of its High-Performance Computing (HPC) portfolio.

The energy in the room proved what we’ve known for a while: open source in financial services has moved definitively from promise to proof. As FINOS Executive Director Gabriele Columbro noted in his opening remarks, *"truly it's about building a more profitable, more resilient and faster innovating industry."* Here is a look back at the overarching themes, keynotes, and breakout sessions that dominated OSFF Toronto 2026..
