## Known Instances

* Europace AG - see also [Europace InnerSource Prinzipien](https://tech.europace.de/post/europace-inner-source-prinzipien/) (German)
### Europace AG

The InnerSource principles listed in the Solution above are mostly based on Europace's experience. For more details see [Europace InnerSource Prinzipien](https://tech.europace.de/post/europace-inner-source-prinzipien/) (in German).

### Robert Bosch GmbH

Fostering collaboration, learning and innovation is the main focus of the Bosch
InnerSource initiative (BIOS). To that end, they applied the following
principles:

- **Openness**: We lower the barriers for entry into BIOS communities as much as we can.
- **Transparency**: We are radically transparent and share our work products, our communication, and our decision making with all associates in the company.
- **Voluntariness**: The decision to join and contribute to a BIOS community is left to each associate. Associates should work within BIOS because they are intrinsically motivated, not because their manager told them so.
- **Self-Determination**: BIOS communities are free to choose what to work on, when they work and what tools and processes they use to work.
- **Meritocracy**: Power is vested in BIOS project members based on their merits, that is, based on the quality and quantity of their contributions.

The principles _Openness_, _Transparency_ and _Voluntariness_ helped grow
diverse communities of intrinsically motivated associates. _Meritocracy_ has
proven to be an effective motivation for making great contributions.
_Self-Determination_ allowed the communities to use their limited time for
contributions in the most effective and efficient way.
