Descrizione del progetto
Promuovere il concetto di open source in Europa
Il software open-source (OS) ha un codice sorgente disponibile pubblicamente, a beneficio dei progetti educativi e degli studenti di tecnologia. Il progetto OSAwards.EU finanziato dall’UE, istituirà un sistema di assegnazione del riconoscimento pubblico europeo per il software e l’hardware OS. Questo sistema di assegnazione promuove l’interesse per i contributi SO e ne favorisce l’integrazione in tutta Europa. Guidato dalla European Open Source Academy, il progetto riconoscerà ogni anno persone e progetti di spicco. La Settimana europea dell’Open Source, che coincide con eventi importanti come il FOSDEM, aumenterà la visibilità e incoraggerà l’impegno della comunità. La European Open Source Academy collaborerà con la Commissione europea e con OSAwards.EU per nominare e selezionare i destinatari dei premi, assicurando che i premi siano credibili e prestigiosi e che promuovano al contempo iniziative di sviluppo delle competenze.
Obiettivo
In its 30-month duration, OSAwards.eu will establish a European Public Recognition Scheme for Open Source (OS) Software (SW) and Hardware (HW). This system for European Awards will foster interest in contributions, and promote greater integration, utilisation and exploitation of OS SW and HW assets in Europe. It will do this by:
• Celebrating Excellence: The European OS Awards, designed with guidance from an expert European OS Academy, will annually recognise outstanding contributions from individuals and projects throughout Europe.
• Amplifying Impact: The strategically timed EU OS Week, coinciding with major European events like FOSDEM, will elevate the awards' profile and foster extensive community engagement.
• Building European Expertise: The European OS Academy, composed of leading figures in OS, will work with the European Commission (EC) and OSAawards.eu to nominate and select awardees, ensuring the legitimacy and prestige of the awards while inspiring future generations. The Academy will also be built as an institution that implements and drives OSAwards.eu’s Strategy for skills development
OSAwards.eu brings a strong sustainability component into its approach. By leveraging existing communities and initiatives, we ensure the awards, week, and academy endure beyond the project's lifespan. This award system’s focus on public recognition and institution-building creates a lasting impact that serves as a world-renowned annual event highlighting Europe's OS achievements. By intertwining recognition (Awards), legitimacy and skills (Academy and Skills Strategy), and community engagement (Week), we cultivate a comprehensive strategy that celebrates excellence, fuels innovation, and guarantees the continued advancement of OS technologies in Europe, across society and industrial verticals. By extension OSAwards.eu is a project aimed at advancing the EU’s competitiveness and open strategic autonomy.
