FOSDEM event "First Ph.D. then Open Source Startup"

Dirk Riehle

Type lightningtalk

How to start an open source business while getting a Ph.D.

Starts on day 1 (2021-02-06) at 16:00 (Brussels time, UTC+1) in room Lightningtalks (duration 00:20)

Matrix room #lightningtalks:fosdem.org

There is no better place than a university to develop open source software that you can turn into a startup. Along the way you can get (but don't have to) a Ph.D. When the time is right, you can spin out from the university with substantial state funding, which helps you avoid venture capital (and losing equity early). In this talk, I explain how it works (in Germany). I welcome specific proposals, and I am hiring for my existing open source research projects and startups.
