Open, Free, and Built by Friends: The Journey of #fitimadiliandfriends Online Community

In this session, I will share the journey of how #fitimadiliandfriends was born, starting from a simple idea (a LinkedIn post) and growing into an online community with more than 1,800 active members around the world. I’ll discuss the challenges and lessons along the way, the direct impact this project has had on me personally, and the broader influence it has had on society. We’ll also explore where the initiative stands today, how it continues to evolve, and what it can mean for anyone who wants to build something similar. This is not just a story about an open and free community, it’s a story about people, collaboration, and the power of communities.
