Manage episode 354100849 series 2686802
Heather Meeker, General Partner at OSS Capital, joins me to discuss the legal elements of open source, including options for licensing and business structure.
In this episode, Heather and I explore the intersection of law and open source by reviewing licensing options, challenges, and common mistakes startups make early on. We also get into less common licensing and business models and what might be in store for the future of licensing in open source.

- Heather introduces herself and reviews her background in open source (0:50)
- Legal issues startups can run into early on (2:02)

- How the challenges commercial open source startups face are different from those proprietary software companies face (16:58)
- Heather shares her idea of the number one mistake new startups make (26:37)
