Enterprise Development Survey
Help OSE build the Global Village Construction Set

OSE has many tech development projects in the works--from concept design to prototyping to beta testing.There are different ways to get involved, from Design Sprints to enterprise startup. Please see various options at https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/Getting_Involved. By collaborating with OSE you agree to make a  work open source under the CC-BY-SA or other OSHWA-compliant hardware license or FSF/OSI compliant software license. This means that you can collaborate with OSE under its brand and license, or replicate this work independently free of charge. We encourage both - as we pursue collaborative design for a transparent and inclusive economy of abundance.

Here we survey the skill sets of participants interested in collaboration at the enterprise development level - focusing on Open Source Microfactory STEAM Camps, Summers of Extreme Design-Build, Enterprise Training, startup of production enterprises around the Global Village Construction Set, and more.

Please be brief and to the point - as this is a survey and is not intended to be a comprehensive assessment, but part of a process that gives our team a good sense of where you are at in various areas.

We respect your privacy. We do not sell or give away your information to third parties, and will use this list only towards the public interest mission of Open Source Ecology, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization registered in the United States of America.
