Description

The GitHub Policy Team is interested in supporting research on the economic impact of open source.

Check out our [blog on the topic](https://github.blog/2022-01-20-open-source-creates-value-but-how-do-you-measure-it/), which cites some good past research and outlines three themes that we think are important.

If you have comments, good sources, and/or further questions you'd like to see answered, please comment in this issue! And if you're a researcher interested in this area, we'd be especially interested to hear from you, whether in this issue, on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/GitHubPolicy/status/1484209607413174273), or via email to policy@github.com.
