Open Innovation Team
Open Innovation Team Overview
The Open Innovation experiments aim to connect teams and projects at Mozilla with external value pools for a relationship that benefits new ideas and open source work. These value pools are composed of different individuals, groups or organization that offer value to projects through their unique expertise, insights and perspective. Among them are universities and academics, professional experts, users, other organizations, nonprofits and start-ups. Mozilla's Open Innovation Team seeks to support, cultivate and enable those who are looking for different solutions both in and outside of Mozilla.
Current Projects
| Project Name | Project Summary | Project Lead | More Information | How to get involved |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Equal Rating Innovation Challenge | Mozilla seeks to make the full range of the Internet’s extraordinary power and innovative potential available to all. We advocate for “equal rating” where consumers choose content based on the quality of that content, not the financial power and business partnerships of the provider. | Lindsay Saunders (LRSaunders) | www.equalrating.com | Please email equalrating@mozilla.com for information on involvement |
| Participation Systems | Henrik Mitsch (hmitsch) | Find us on IRC #participationsystems or Telegram | ||
| Identity and Access Management (IAM) | Mozilla’s Identity and Access Management (IAM) project builds a secure, easy to manage, and appropriate authentication and identification service for all of Mozilla and its community, which enables seamless communication & collaboration between staff and volunteers. | Henrik Mitsch (hmitsch) | Please follow the Participation Systems category on Discourse. | |
| Open Source Experiments | Open source is famously being used to transform other industries, but the way that projects work has been slow to innovate. We're trying to learn how to beat bugs, burnout and bias by experimenting with new data collection methods, tools, and processes. | Don Marti (dmarti) |
