Wonder when there will be a French equivalent of or funding for the Sovereign Tech Agency.

I have so many issues with German “sovereign” initiatives founded as GmbH companies. This feels so uncompetitive.

  • What sort of issues? They are just providing funding for open source, personally I would prefer that sort of funding to corporate funding.

    • A GmbH is s for-profit company. They have a managing director, shareholders, … ultimately it’s a for—profit org established on an insider-level knowledge and good luck creating a competitive business to the one of those players. Case in point: Bundesanzeiger Verlag GmbH.
