SIPA EVENT MAY - 2006
 
Open Source - Impact on Enterprise Software


Open source will undoubtedly play a big role in the years to come. In the battle between open source and commercial alternatives, now is the time to step back and evaluate the realities of open source and all of its implications.

In that context, please attend the panel discussion around:

  • What is a software company today?

  • How far will open source go to reshape the industry?

  • Is the traditional licensed based software business dead? If not how will they co-exist?

  • What is the value of intellectual property in this new landscape?

  • How to build your own business model?

  • What is the best strategy for getting open source skills into your team?

SPEAKERS:
Dr. Rafiq Dossani - Sr. Research Scholar, Stanford University (Moderator)
Rob Theis - General Partner, Doll Capital Management
Murugan Pal - Founder & CTO, Spikesource
Jeff Nolan - Director, Apollo Strategy Group,
SAP
