About US
We are building an open network of tech coops across the globe, starting from SF
The Popup Campus is our innovation-optimized, experimental model.
It is designed to activate new ideas through short-term, high-agency gatherings.
Summary about what we do?
“Open” isn’t just about code
It’s a way of building, coordinating, and sharing value — together.
Founded in 2023, Open Source Society (OSS) is a nonprofit research foundation dedicated to advancing open-source collaboration and tech development.
We fund, cultivate, and recognize the builders shaping the future of open technology.


We operate through grants, fellowships, a global campus network, and cultural recognition – offering compute, credits, space, and spotlight to empower.
Inspired by models like Eleuther AI and AI Grant, we aim to carry the torch forward to back builders pushing the frontier of open technology.
Ecosystem
In two years, we’ve gathered 150+ thought leaders, hosted 60+ events across 5 cities, partnered with 50+ organizations, and engaged over 7,000 attendees.
