DESCRIPTION:Many public services\, including healthcare\, significantly dep
 end on proprietary products and infrastructure. This tends to inflate the 
 service costs enormously – to a simply unaffordable degree\, especially 
 in the global South. The Open Source Imaging Initiative (OSI²) has develo
 ped an MRI scanner – which allows everyone to use\, study\, share\, and 
 improve it – thereby counteracting the MRI oligopoly and opening up proc
 esses for clinical certification. This talk will give an overview of the O
 SI² initiative and outline the concept of democratic\, sovereign technolo
 gy for critical infrastructure.
