6. Open Source
u Source code openly accessible and reusable for everyone
u Enables pre-competitive collaboration: both academics and
industry can use and enhance it à leverage public funding
u Transparency: verification (scientific as well as IT security) can be
done by anyone, no ‘black box’
Consumer market examples:

Why open source?
u Leverage joint innovation power of academics, industry and SME’s
u Leverage public funding from EU and NIH
u Build a joint product roadmap and combine investments
u Proven model: works very well in cloud computing (Linux, OpenStack),
in web development and for data science in general (R, Spark etc.)
u Prerequisite: collaboration à community building
