It takes time to maintain this ecosystem. We’re all excited about innovation, we had hackathons—we need that. But understand it’s two sides of the same coin. If we don’t maintain, we will never get to innovate in a healthy & sustainable way. That needs to be nailed down in all rooms.

but understanding that this is something that needs continuous investment, and that it’s going to pay back in multiple ways. That is often still seen outside of this room as a niche topic.

We [the Sovereign Tech Agency] do public procurement. It’s not a nice-to-have, it’s a must-have. Open source is what we’re all running on. No matter what product it is, it is the foundation. Using a mindset that is not funding per se, as in giving money once in a while for a short time…

At the same time, we need to find ways to avoid volunteer burnout, more security issues arising from an absolute increase: AI is creating a lot of stress in the infrastructure layer. The goodwill of providing more support can backfire if we don’t take all this into account.

We need to take all of these factors into account if we want to channel support into our shared digital infrastructure, into #OpenSource communities.

The reality is also that money doesn’t solve all problems, unfortunately. It can create wrong incentives, it can increase stress and pressure, it can rip communities apart, it can do good in the short term but harm in the long term.

it’s one shared ecosystem. Understanding this nature, also the production logics of #OpenSource software is important for governments and all actors, if you want to do good in this ecosystem.

and supports our values, and then share it? It doesn’t help if just one of us doing it, we need to do that collectively. This is why it’s great that we’re talking about this at the UN. It’s a global task: it doesn’t stop at borders; it’s not a geographical topic; it connects all of us;

which, we believe, is crucial for better outcomes, more engagement, healthy competition and innovation, bringing us the results that we need to achieve the SDGs, new business models, whatever it is we desire.

We need to understand how they are connected, and that we need to address and sustain them in different ways if we want to get somewhere with open digital infrastructure that serves the public’s interest.

At the Sovereign Tech Agency, we focus on the software that developers need to develop software. We call that infrastructure, which is a different understanding to what many hear when we talk about DPI. Both are extremely important and exist at the same time.
