summary
Bosch builds an OSPO out of existing teams and documents a global network of open source officers that routes questions from any region to central expertise, formalizes governance and trainings, and launches OpenChain conformity plus tooling that provides automation for maintainers rather than doing their reviews. The office focuses on matchmaking (internal communities to external projects), hosting meetups in company spaces, publishing use cases and a business guide, and shows the model works at scale across regions.
