Future-Proof Your Tech Stack & Drive Business Innovation

The Open Source Advantage:
Strategy, Governance, Success with Quansight

More than 90% of technology is built using open source software, and with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs), these dependencies are only growing. Establishing a robust open source strategy is essential for modern organizations looking to build a long-term plan for sustainability and innovation. However, organizational leaders often need help knowing where to start.

At Quansight, we bridge the gap between businesses and the open source community by leveraging our long-standing position and reputation within the community to facilitate trust-building. By aligning our community expertise with your business goals and needs, we’ll develop an open source strategy that works for you.

Increase business agility

Using open source software as the foundation, we deliver tailor-made solutions that strengthen the community and enhance the technologies the world already depends on.

Many companies rely heavily on open source software but don’t have the full picture regarding the true business value, costs, principles, and community involvement required to ensure its long-term viability. At Quansight, we’ll guide you through assessing your current stack and help you develop a strategy to invest in and give back to the critical projects your business relies upon.

By actively engaging with and supporting these vital open source communities, you’ll reduce risks, gain a voice within the community, and get visibility into project direction and roadmaps for your core dependencies. This strategic approach ensures a competitive edge and drives innovation and growth by aligning your efforts with the advancements happening within the ecosystem.

In collaboration with our strategic partner, OpenTeams, Quansight’s Open Source Services will help you drive innovation and ensure sustainability within open source. Our combined expertise enables us to foster meaningful connections within the community, ensuring you stay closely aligned with the projects that make up your tech stack.
