Six Years of Empowering Open Source Communities - Shuah Khan, The Linux Foundation
Thursday March 20, 2025 10:45am - 11:15am PDT
Silverado East
Growing new talent and attracting new developers is challenging for open source communities. Yet, it is vital to reach out to train the next generation of developers to keep the open source communities healthy and sustainable.

Equitable access to learning resources is a barrier for a significant number of new developers. It isn't easy for new developers to get a start in open source, connect with open source communities and contribute to them.

Shuah Khan will talk about Linux Foundation's six year journey to provide learning resources for new open source developers, opportunities to experts in open source communities to train and mentor the next generation, and make newly trained talent available to prospective employers.
