Keitaro has announced conformance with the International Standard for open source license compliance, OpenChain ISO 5230. Keitaro is an open-source solutions provider, committed to the values of openness.
“Keitaro is an important addition to the OpenChain conformance ecosystem,” says Shane Coughlan, OpenChain General Manager. “It is noteworthy that their self-certification marks our formal expansion into the arena of managed services. This is both a natural and important progression, not least given the dependence of so many entities on such providers.”

As a result, achieving and maintaining intellectual property management is essential for our company and the supply chain. The adoption of OpenChain ISO 5230 at Keitaro will significantly enhance our potential to provide more reliable and consistent solutions to our customers.”

Description: Using ISO 5230, The International Standard For Open Source License Compliance- Shane Coughlan, Linux Foundation
This talk will introduce and explain ISO 5230, the International Standard for open source license compliance. It will focus on practical understanding and adoption, explaining how user companies created a simple, effective and efficient standard to reduce errors and resource costs associated with open source compliance. Case studies will be used to illustrate real-world deployment across multiple industry sectors. We will end with an explicit walk-through of how your company can utilize the standard in the context of internal software process management and your external supply chain. This talk will help empower companies new to ISO 5230 and companies early in their adoption cycle to clearly frame the cost and benefits of engagement, and provide them with the tools to make full use of the standard.
