Today is the National Open Source Innovation Summit 2025 and Managing Director Stella Power will take part in a panel discussion this afternoon.

The annual summit, which focuses on how open source technology is transforming innovation, takes place at the Alex Hotel in Dublin. 

Participants from government, business, academia and the broader tech community will explore how leveraging this technology can accelerate ideas into action. 

The summit is organised by Open Ireland Network, a social enterprise dedicated to fostering open source innovation across the island of Ireland. Annertech uses open source technology whenever possible, and most of our websites are built on Drupal.

“I’m really excited about attending this summit,” said Stella. 

“At Annertech we are committed to making the internet more inclusive and open to as many people as possible by using open source technology. This kind of tech, which is available freely for everyone to use, has the power to break down barriers of wealth and privilege.” 

Stella will speak about open source skills during the discussion on “How Ireland can address the Global OSS Skills Gap” from 3.20pm to 4pm. 

Other panellists are Danese Cooper (InnerSource Commons), Stephen Walli (Microsoft) and Michael Meagher (OpenIreland Network). 

“The open source space is exhilarating and always changing, and I’m looking forward to chatting with others and listening to their experiences,” said Stella.
