Another Session on "Why Going Open Source?”
summary
Morgan Stanley runs more than 35 projects on GitHub and treats open source as a strategic, pluggable architecture allowing desktop.js demo integration that let a vendor drop a live control into an internal product and accelerate a purchase. Open sourcing Compose helps pivot vendor roadmaps; working with Turntable (Ghana) shows open source enables paid staff augmentation without heavy onboarding. Contributions reach ~200 PRs this year. Biggest blockers are legal workflows and lack of a designated head of open source despite gains in visibility and reduced red tape.
