Session

Open source as a Startup

This talk is for everyone who's interested in open source + everyone who's interested in entrepreneurship/startups!

I reflect on journey -- from building an open edtech platform for K-12 students (Class Rebels), to an open source browser extension for people with dyslexia that became an accessibility technology company with several disabled-friendly products (Oswald Labs), to starting a Y Combinator-funded company in a completely different space (Pabio, furniture rental with interior design), and building and launching an open source project with 10k+ stars (Upptime).

In this session, participants will learn:
- How Upptime works using GitHub Actions, GitHub Issues, and GitHub Pages
- Open source monetization options like dual licensing
- Fundraising as an open source company
- Benefits of investing in open source as a startup
- Value and usefulness of open source software
