OpenChain to Feature in Two Talks by Marcel Kurzmann
SAN FRANCISCO, United States, September 11, 2017 –The OpenChain Project will feature in two talks to be delivered by Marcel Kurzmann at Open Source Summit Europe and EclipseCon Europe 2017.
“The most valuable aspect of OpenChain is our community,” says Shane Coughlan, OpenChain Program Manager. “Marcel’s talks, covering practical aspects of using the OpenChain Specification and Curriculum to solve real world problems, are a great example of how we share knowledge outwards. Our community has made great strides in both developing and sharing knowledge over the last twelve months and we expect this trend to accelerate in the coming year.”

About The OpenChain Project
The OpenChain Project identifies key recommended processes for effective open source management. The project builds trust in open source by making open source license compliance simpler and more consistent.
The OpenChain Specification defines a core set of requirements every quality compliance program must satisfy. The OpenChain Curriculum provides the educational foundation for open source processes and solutions, whilst meeting a key requirement of the OpenChain Specification. OpenChain Conformance allows organizations to display their adherence to these requirements. The result is that open source license compliance becomes more predictable, understandable and efficient for participants of the software supply chain. Organizations of all sizes are invited to review the OpenChain Project, to complete our free Online Self-Certification Questionnaire, and to join our community of trust.
The OpenChain Project has twelve Platinum Members that support its work: Adobe, Arm, Cisco, Harmen, Hitachi, HPE, Github, Qualcomm, Siemens, Toyota, Wind River and Western Digital.
