Stephane Ribas is an Agile and Open Source senior consultant with 12+ years at Inria, where he leads the Agile & Open Source Program and shapes OSS policy and practices across a 100+ person information systems department. He combines hands-on team leadership—formerly managing the SEISM team that built open digital services—with deep expertise in community building, governance, licensing, and sustainable business models for FLOSS. An experienced trainer and lecturer at IAE and ENSIMAG, he translates research in community management into practical frameworks used to grow and sustain open-source projects. Stephane’s background as an OSS community manager includes contributions to robotics, multimedia, and quality initiatives (Poppy, Natron, QualiPSo) and active advocacy through conferences and AFUL board service. He’s as comfortable coaching Agile teams in Scrum, Kanban, and XP as he is designing department-wide Open Source policies, bringing a rare blend of technical empathy, academic insight, and organizational impact.
