Community Building

The greatest assets that any open source project has is its community. That is the fuel that sustains its progress and contributes to crowd innovation.

OSE's goal is to develop a dynamic community of contributors who collectively demonstrate that innovation can be accelerated to a rate exceeding any development processes known today. This is because we want to solve pressing world issues by distributing open source blueprints and open source enterprises worldwide. The best way to predict the future - is to invent it.

For effective community building, onboarding, culturing, educating, developing work teams, developing rapid collaborative development techniques, and developing rapid build techniques. For continuity, we are concerned about livelihoods being created from OSE's work - hence our focus on education and effective production.

Our mental model is that skills and knowledge are the most potent form of empowerment which can create the open source economy. In such a model, we favor distributed, voluntary development - where the reward comes from product designs and enterprises that the entire world can benefit from.

Thus, our approach fcuses on providing tools and blueprints for products and enterprises to everyone - rather than any other mechanism that hinders open, collaborative innovation, or that provides barriers to access. For reason, we are absolutely open source, not partially open like NC or PPL licenses. This is because we want to create open culture, not play into any mechanisms of protectionism.

OSE Webinars

In order to promote organizational learning at OSE, we will begin an OSE Webinar series where we invite leading practitioners to share their wisdom on sustainable design, leadership, useful skills, and other topics related to becoming an effective contributor to OSE and changemaker.

These will be free during the webinar and 8 weeks after, with a gift economy donation if someone wants to receive a link for viewing at their convenience. The revenue model is deigned to support a member of the OSE community to produce these webinars.
