<h3>Biography</h3>
<div class="bio"><p>Kate Downing is a solo practitioner specializing in open source licensing and compliance. She works with start-ups, Fortune 500 companies, and companies of all sizes in between to help them choose open source licensing strategies, choose and configure open source compliance tools, establish company-wide policies and workflows, and otherwise create simple, effective processes for OSS compliance, contributions, and open-sourcing of future projects. She has also written extensively on machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies and counsels many clients in this domain. Before starting her own practice in 2017, Kate led a team of 12 open source attorneys at VMware, and built an open source compliance process from scratch as ServiceNow's first product counsel. Kate is the co-chair of the Practicing Law Institute's annual OSS program. Kate is a board member for the PolyForm Project and a member of the Blue Oak Council.</p></div>
