Building a Global Community – The OpenSearch Project’s User Group Success Story

When the OpenSearch Project launched in 2021, fostering an engaged, global community was a top priority—but how do you go from zero to a thriving network of user groups in just a few years? Through intentional strategy, open collaboration, and grassroots enthusiasm, the OpenSearch Project has grown its user group program to 17 active groups across 11 countries, creating spaces for learning, networking, and innovation.
