You can find more indepth information about All Things Open on their event summary document.

We’ll be speaking about designing for crisis, a panel discussion on diversity best practice and of course, a short talk about Open Design.

Attending and speaking at events like All Things Open are unique chances where all functions that make the technology industry work come together not just in a commercial sense but in advocacy of Open Source Software.

Through our current research, we know that helping designers, corporates and for-profit companies that hire designers on staff understand what the role of OSS and humanitarian tech is, but helping those that build and maintain OSS understand the role and value of design is key to a collaborative, inclusive future for design and open source.

Please come back after the event for a summary of what was discussed and discovered at All Things Open 2019 regarding Open Design!
