We’re very excited to be hosting tonight’s event: The #SovereignTechFellowship – Who Will Maintain Our Digital Future?

We’re slowly welcoming everyone here in Berlin and officially kicking off the evening. This event marks the conclusion of our very first Sovereign Tech Fellowship cohort, a moment to talk about why we started the program, share the insights from the evaluation of the pilot, and reflect on the impact and what we’ve learned.

There are a few spots left for the event I'm hosting tomorrow evening in Berlin about the #SovereignTechFellowship. If you're interested in learning about the often unrecognized work of maintainers like @hugovk, @icing, @matk, Sarah, Jan and the other #FOSS folks that goes into maintaining our digital infrastructure and future -- and what we at the @sovtechfund are doing about it -- register here: https://events.sovereign.tech/fellowship/

The #SovereignTechFellowship directly advances the Agency’s mission to secure and strengthen critical digital infrastructure. By providing key maintainers with strategic, predictable support, the program reduced operational risk, improved response capacity, and ensured continuity for high-impact open source components.

@dany_57987 Yes, @bagder is actually kind to mention us / the Sovereign Tech Fund quite often. It was part of the pilot round of investments: https://www.sovereign.tech/tech/curl

Also @icing is one of the #SovereignTechFellowship maintainers (mentioning because he works on curl in addition to other FOSS projects).
