Agility requires a nuanced understanding of not just the technology at hand, but also the internal capabilities and collaborative potential within an organization. It demands a willingness to adapt strategies, embrace change, and prioritize value delivery above rigid adherence to traditional models.
Today, we're going to talk about navigating the increasingly complex "build vs. buy" dilemma in the age of AI, and how an inner-source approach can offer a compelling alternative. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Luv Kapur, Staff Engineering Lead at Bit.
