Want to be a Software Industry Influencer? Get Involved in Open Source

103

SD Times recently recognized The Linux Foundation among the top innovators and leaders in software development in its annual SD Times 100 list.

The LF was honored to be named a top Influencer, along with ten other industry heavyweights including Apple, Facebook, GitHub, Google, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Netflix, Red Hat, and Slack.

Open source has long been a de facto standard for development and the companies on the influencers list pioneered this approach with their own products and services.
