Dries Buytaert - Why Open Source Is Recession-Proof




The New Stack Makers show

Summary: Twenty years ago, Dries Buytaert founded Drupal right at the dot-com bust. Then in 2008, at the start of the so-called Great Recession, he started Acquia, a digital experience platform for Drupal sites. Some would say those are unlucky times to start businesses. Not Buytaert. He’s convinced well-loved free and open source software or FOSS is recession-proof. And that’s what this episode of The New Stack Makers dives into.
