 Entrepreneurship using FOSS

Shamil CM <sham...@gmail.com> Jan 15 04:15PM +0530  

Hi,
 
The event announcement for FOSSMeet 2013 was done a few days earlier. The
work for the event is underway, and a few changes have been made to the
site. http://fossmeet.in. Call for speakers in now open.
 
An idea arose in one of the discussions to have a talk regarding startups
using free software, and how to make money being part of the community. Any
suggestions regarding having such a talk during FOSSMeet? Please share your
ideas on this
 
Regards,
Shamil

Somebody from Profoundis http://www.profoundis.com/ might be a good idea.
One of the co-founders Anoop Thomas Mathew (@atmb4u) was one of the
speakers (Python Workshop) along with late Kenneth "lawgon" Gonsalves.

Abhas abhinav from deeproot linux, Anoop John from Zyxware are good
candidates.
 
Btw, someone update the subject prefix from 'FOSSMeet 2011'.

Also try contacting Plivo.com. They are doing great stuff with Python. You
may contact Nishad or Venky over there.

Profoundis , Plivo and Zyxware seems to be good options, wiil try to get
in contact with them. Its good to encourage startups which use and believe
in FOSS.
 
Praveen, speakers from Redhat would be great. Can you suggest some other
interesting topics, and get some speakers? We can ask the speakers team to
contact them regarding travel, accommodation etc, if they are interested.

Shamil

It would be great if you get some kernel hackers from RedHat. Maybe you can
have a Kernel Hacking 101.

I suggest Suparna Bhattacharya
http://researcher.watson.ibm.com/researcher/view.php?person=in-bsuparna -
she is a world renowned kernel hacker. Had met her at IISc, where she is
doing PhD, she had shown interest in visiting our campus sometime.
 
We can also try to get someone from IBM Linux Technology Center (two
persons visited us during Tathva for Virtual Tux contest).

Apart from Suparna, you should try get hold of someone like us who are new
into Kernel Development. If you can get Srivatsa it would be great. He
graduated from NITK in 2011 and is part of IBM LTC.
 
He should be able to help students how to kick start contribution to
Kernel. He should be able to give his story. How it started and his
experiences. It would be easy for students to relate his experiences to
themselves.
 
He had given session at FOSS.in this time.
