"Open source, cloud and mobile technologies are an important path to innovation for SAP," said Claus von Riegen, Vice President Industry Standards and Open Source, SAP. "As we expand our use of open source to shorten development cycles while increasing new product innovation, this interchange of ideas and solutions becomes increasingly important. What happens at Think Tank influences how we think at SAP."

"The theme of this year's Think Tank inspired our decision to sponsor this event," said Deepak Kamlani, CEO Global Inventures. "Global Inventures is focused on expanding innovation and collaboration via global multi-stakeholder collaboration, across multiple industry sectors. Think Tank is providing valuable focus on the strategic implications of OSS -- its importance to the technology ecosystem is undeniable."

Think Tank attendees, including CEOs, CIOs, CTOs, legal experts, investors and senior executives will discuss the current state and future direction of commercial open source.  This exclusive, semi-annual event will feature a case study from the GENIVI Alliance and, announced today, a case study about the Veterans Administration open sourcing their electronic health care records management system.

"The GENIVI Alliance is honored to be a core case study for the Open Source Think Tank," said Steve Crumb, Executive Director, GENIVI Alliance.  "GENIVI is driving the adoption of open source in the automotive industry through its in-vehicle infotainment software platform, and we look forward to gathering insights from the expert audience at Think Tank and implementing these insights into our work."

The spring 2012 Open Source Think Tank will be held at the Silverado Resort in Napa. Co-hosted by Olliance Group and DLA Piper, the conference includes an interactive format of group sessions, group exercises and case studies in which participants share concerns, issues, experiences and common challenges while collaboratively developing solutions.
