Kamino San and his staff at Mercari kindly hosted an informal gathering for the OpenChain Japan Work Group on the 24th of August. We had the additional pleasure of welcoming Keith Bergelt, CEO of Open Invention Network, to the meeting and benefiting from his knowledge of the current intellectual property landscape for open source software.
We are still in the process of spinning up larger gatherings in Japan as COVID restrictions lift, so we look forward to building on this event, and gradually bringing our whole work group together for discussions and networking.
