Linux Foundation Research is calling for sponsors and partners for a new research study on open source trends and opportunities on a global scale. Following the success of the 2022 Europe Spotlight survey and report, the Global Spotlight 2023 project will greatly expand our view of open source participation in different regions, with valuable insight to better understand and support open source participation around the world.
The 2023 survey will generate insights into regional open source trends, including:
The target sample for this survey is open source contributors and developers who have an understanding of the role of open source software in their organization or within a given industry. The research is relevant to decision makers from all functions and sectors, including managers, executives, policy makers, and others involved in open source initiatives.
The results of this survey will help us identify regional trends and opportunities, and will facilitate the development of this year’s Europe Spotlight, Japan Spotlight, and other region-specific reports.
Research provides our communities with valuable data and is a great opportunity to engage with, and hear from, the open source community at large. This year, we are seeking support from organizations and open source projects in our efforts in order to achieve broad survey distribution, generate survey completes, and maximize the impact of this research.
Sponsors who financially support this research receive:
Partners who share the survey to their networks through main communications channels receive:
