The Board plays a pivotal role in establishing partnerships with Standard Development Organizations and Foundations. Moreover, the development and enhancement of OpenInfra projects heavily rely on the Board's support and guidance.
I am convinced that forging collaborations with other Foundations and Standard Development Organizations should be a key focus for the next year. Additionally, embracing a Cloud Native approach, promoting OpenStack as a Public Cloud solution, and exploring more applications of OpenInfra in areas like 5G, Edge Computing, IoT, and AI are crucial. These steps will significantly contribute to increasing the adoption of OpenStack.
