OPEN SOURCE COORDINATOR  - TWO SIGMA

 

TALK

Why Contribute to Open Source

Two Sigma takes major steps to protect our IP, but we also believe in the importance of contributing to the open source software (OSS) community. In this talk, I’ll cover the evolution of Two Sigma's thinking and policies over the past five years, and make a case for how other companies can be simultaneously self-interested and altruistic when it comes to OSS.
