About

Open-source software and cloud-native infrastructure have fundamentally revolutionized the modern IT stack, and these technologies are increasingly working hand-in-hand at the most progressive enterprises.

​

At the Battery Ventures OpenCloud Summit, in partnership with Silicon Valley Bank, we are bringing together founders and CEOs from leading startups, technology stalwarts and Fortune 500 executives to discuss a new, modern IT paradigm: leveraging open-source technology as a customer-acquisition channel and cloud-native models to deliver time-to-value for today’s forward-thinking enterprises.

​

Learn best practices from other industry leaders who have built their open cloud businesses to $100M in revenue and beyond through:

​

• Open-source licensing models and developing viral communities;

• Monetization across open-core and cloud-delivery models, among others;

• Leadership lessons from some of the industry’s pioneers around topics including team building, sales-compensation models, and alliance strategies around cloud-service providers.
