Rachel Roumeliotis
Principal
For over 10 years, I’ve held senior roles in technology strategy and content leadership, most recently serving as Director of Open Source Strategy at Intel, with a focus on developing open source initiatives, fostering partnerships, and advancing AI and cloud technologies. Prior to that, as Vice President at O’Reilly Media, I managed a large content and learning ecosystem, organized high-profile digital events, and built strategic partnerships with major tech companies such as IBM, Google, and Databricks. I also have extensive experience designing and leading industry conferences such as OSCON, emphasizing diversity and digital transformation. My passion revolves around emerging technology trends, developer engagement, and strategic growth initiatives.
