Freedom First

More Than a Motto, It’s Our Mission

Freedom First means empowering everyone to:

• Learn without barriers
• Share without restrictions
• Innovate without proprietary limits

It’s not just about software — it’s about a global culture of openness and trust that leads to better technology and a better world.​

Our Mission

Bridging the Open Source Talent Gap

At Open Source Science, our mission is to bridge the gap between the world’s reliance on open source software and the shortage of skilled open source developers. From smartphones to space exploration, open source powers the innovations that shape our future — yet too few students are taught how to contribute to this ecosystem.

We believe education is the key to change. By equipping the next generation of developers with real-world open source skills, we empower them to collaborate, solve problems, and innovate the way modern tech companies do. Our mission is to ensure that the future of technology is not only built on open source, but also built by a thriving, diverse community of open source contributors.
