When I started working on the OpenBB Terminal during the Covid Christmas holidays, I never imagined it would grow into what it is today. It's been an honor to collaborate with the community to develop a truly open source investment research platform.OpenBB CEO
Our Culture
As an open source company, we are nothing without a strong culture.
AUTONOMY &
OWNERSHIP
We empower our team to be autonomous and take ownership of their work. We are an async remote team, working worldwide. We avoid unnecessary meetings and trust our team with a flexible schedule. We focus on output rather than working hours and past achievements.
INNOVATION &
EXCELLENCE
We strive to become a better version of ourselves and deliver high quality products for our users. We weren't scared of taking an open source approach in the financial industry, and we aren't scared to innovate. This is how we will lead the way.
TRANSPARENT &
TRUSTWORTHY
We started as an open source project; but now we're becoming an open company. Being open has a positive impact on our team, users and shareholders. This level of transparency allows you to trust us, as we trust each other internally.
DIVERSITY &
INCLUSION
Being remote means our team comes from different backgrounds, cultures and experiences. This means we deliver better solutions by seeing different perspectives. We embrace our diversity and listen to feedback.
PURPOSE &
PASSION
Disrupting an industry is not for everyone, we are building a bold, passionate team that wants to have a long lasting impact on the world. This is how we will democratize investment research.
USER FOCUSED &
COMMUNITY ORIENTED
We are nothing without our community. We value every user and keep them in mind for every decision we take. Putting the user first allows us to iterate our products faster.

I'm excited about OpenBB's mission to leverage open source to bring innovation and democratize access to investment research.
Larry Augustin
Former CEO of SugarCRM, and former VP Applications at AWS
OpenBB empowers millions of individual investors with access to leading-edge financial research. I'm looking forward to watching as OpenBB disrupts an industry model that has historically made sophisticated research tools available to only the wealthiest investors.
Gabriele Columbro
Founder and Executive Director at FINOS
Thrilled to support the OpenBB rocketship. It will no doubt open up one of the most conservative industries in the world and has the potential to bridge retail and institutional investors through open source.
Justin Hoffman
Former SVP Sales at Elastic
Great companies are formed at the intersection of disruption and value. When you see exceptionally motivated people on this road you can't help yourself from jumping in. The team at OpenBB are on to something special and I am fortunate that I can help shape their GTM thinking.
Travis Oliphant
CEO at OpenTeams and Quansight, Founder of Anaconda, NumFOCUS and PyData. Creator of NumPy, SciPy, and Numba.
The world has been waiting for a company like OpenBB. They work for the underserved market of financial professionals looking for data and ways to connect with it. The opportunity is immense, using open source enables you to build more with less. I am thrilled to be associated with them.
Aria Goudarzi
Experienced Financial Services Professional, SVP at one of Asia's Largest Asset Managers
OpenBB is a disruptor in a sector that has historically had high barriers for access to good quality financial data and tools. Their open source community really is at the heart of their mission to making investment research accessible to everyone. I am fortunate and excited to be part of their journey!
Jason Strimpel
Head of Startup Data Strategy at AWS, Founder of PyQuant News
No one ships features faster than OpenBB. The way the team responds to user feedback is unlike anything I've seen in my 20+ year career. A handful of firms have a monopoly on the world's financial data. That changes with OpenBB.
