Meet the Advisory Board
We’re taking a significant step in our journey by establishing the Software Heritage Advisory Board. This is a crucial move toward building a sustainable, independent organization that can truly advance our mission. While our initial board helped launch us from a project at Inria (France’s National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology), the challenges ahead require a more independent structure.
This new board will guide us through a substantial transition. Their work will include identifying the right legal framework, developing a sustainable financial model, building our autonomous team, and strengthening global partnerships.
We’ve brought together a diverse group of experts from various fields and regions—Europe, the Americas, and Asia—to ensure a wide range of perspectives are considered. Their combined expertise will be invaluable as we shape the future of software preservation for cultural heritage, science, industry, and public administration worldwide.
You can find more details on the Board’s launch in our blog post and learn about its members below.
