Agenda:

At work, Colin spends a lot of time talking about the commercial benefits of open source software, and more broadly the business benefit of engaging with the open source community. However, in this talk he'll be sharing a more personal viewpoint, talking about the reasons why he contributes to open source projects, and the benefits it has to him as an individual.

7:00 // Lightning talk

Lightning talk on an open source project – speaker TBC.

If you would be interested in giving a 15-minute lightning talk at a future event, please message co-organisers Claire Cocks or James McLeod via Meetup.com here https://www.meetup.com/Edinburgh-Open-Source-Fintech-Meetup/members/?op=leaders.

7:15 // Break

With Lloyds Engineering gaining wide renown for their transformation of Mainframe DevOps, Reg and the team will guide us through their engineering pipeline, paying particular attention to open source and where InnerSource has enabled acceleration.
