Here's what's happening during the week of October 23, 2023 within the FINOS community.

Last week we were delighted to announce the addition of twelve new FINOS members. The continued expansion of FINOS members, ranging from established financial institutions to fintechs, showcases the transformative power of open source within the financial services industry. Meet the new members in person at our Open Source in Finance Forum (OSFF), on November 1st in NYC.

Tomorrow, join us at Money 20/20 USA in Las Vegas on October 24th for an insightful panel discussion: Clear Skies Ahead: Solving Cloud Migration Issues Through Open Source. Our Executive Director Gabriele Columbro along with other experts will discuss the FINOS Common Cloud Controls project, uniting industry leaders to develop a unified set of cybersecurity controls to address the critical issues of cybersecurity and the looming risk of cloud concentration. Register here.

Interested in open source development in Europe? Listen to Gab discuss the potential impact of the Cyber Resilience Act on the open source community in an interview from the Open Source Summit in Spain with the New Stack.

Discover the latest insights from the Open Source Readiness SIG in a recent blog post by Rob Moffat. Rob discusses progress on the Open Source in Contribution Course and the Financial Services Open Source Developer Exam.
