FINOS NEWS & UPDATES
Open source strategy forum RECAP
Last week we held our 4th annual Open Source Strategy Forum, the only conference dedicated to driving collaboration and innovation in financial services through open source. In our two day virtual conference, more than 75 speakers with expertise in finance, technology, and open source, delivered just over 50 presentations. As with previous years, we had great representation from financial services with around 40% of registrants from sell- and buy-side firms. Check out the full recap to learn more about what the leaders in financial services open source are focused on.

FINOS also announced two new associate members, InterWork Alliance (IWA), and the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA). We're excited to have them all on board!
