I currently have the following general interest talks at hand:
Open Source Research: Analytics, Economics, and Best Practices
Why are small startups and large companies alike giving their software away "for free" as open source? How does open source change developer careers? What new skills do developers and companies need to learn to survive and thrive in this new open source world? This talk discusses the economics driving stakeholder behavior in the open source ecosystem, presents selected analytical results of how open source works (or doesn't) and takes a look at how companies can benefit from employing open source best practices internally.
Open Source Economics: Stakeholder Perspectives
Open source software has changed the rules of the game, impacting significantly the economic behavior of stakeholders in the software ecosystem. This talk analyses the economics of open source from three main perspectives: The system integrator perspective, the start-up firm perspective, and the individual software developer perspective. A focus is on the distinction between community open source and commercial open source, and how the stakeholders use different approaches to win in the market, for example, to gain market share or to keep a job.
In addition, I can repeat specialized talks for papers presented at conferences.
