Eclipse Foundation reposted this
🔥 POSAIS SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT Today, it would be almost naïve to ask: can open source compete with proprietary technology? The answer is yes. And if anyone still doubts it, 𝗣𝗢𝗦𝗔𝗜𝗦 exists precisely to showcase the people, projects and organizations proving it every day. Open source powers the cloud. It powers AI frameworks. It runs inside most of the digital infrastructure we depend on every day. In many ways, open source has already won. So what comes next? We are proud to welcome Gaël Blondelle, Secretary & VP Community Operations at the Eclipse Foundation and Board member of the Open Source Initiative (OSI), to the stage of #POSAIS2026. For more than twenty years, Gaël has been helping build some of the world's most influential open-source ecosystems. Not as an observer, as one of the 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁. As Europe accelerates its ambitions in AI, cloud and digital infrastructure, technological leadership will not be determined by code alone. It will depend on our ability to organize, collaborate and build together. 👉🏼 This is precisely where Gaël's perspective becomes invaluable. 📍 Paris Open Source AI Summit 2026 📅 July 10, 2026 🎟️ Register now: https://lnkd.in/e2J_g8_P 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗣𝗢𝗦𝗔𝗜𝗦? Organized by 𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗚𝗢𝗥𝗔 and the OpenLLM 🇫🇷 🇪🇺 community, POSAIS is the first event in Europe entirely dedicated to open source artificial intelligence and its builders. POSAIS brings together the "𝗱𝗼𝗲𝗿𝘀" of open source AI: Chief Technology Officers, scientists, researchers, CIOs, engineers, decision-makers, and public funders. They share a common vision: the third digital way can only be built upon a universal, transparent, sovereign, and responsible AI. Together, we build the future of AI! #POSAIS #OpenSourceAI #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #CurrentAI #OpenSource #SovereignAI #EuropeanAI #Innovation
