Tagoross unique design
Tagoross CoP's progressive architecture ensures a seamless transition from treating open source as a reactive risk management topic to a proactive part of your organization's strategy.
The environment is organized into three distinct layers, designed to systematically raise your capabilities, while respecting your busy schedule:
- The Collaboration Layer: An invitation-only, free-of-charge environment designed for high-signal, peer networking, and confidential exchange among trusted open-source experts, senior managers, and leaders.
- The Signal Layer: Accessible via a paid annual subscription, granting you direct access to, executive-ready artifacts together with the peer-validated practices behind them, as well as group sessions to digest, evaluate and apply them within their organizations.
- The Focus Layer: Personalized, on demand, individual coaching sessions designed to help you solve your organization’s most complex open-source strategy and governance challenges, without the overhead of traditional consulting agreements.
By building a dedicated and trusted environment structured into these targeted layers, Tagoross eliminates the noise leading to cognitive exhaustion of most open and public forums. Within this Circle of Practice, busy professionals can engage exactly when and how they need to.
The founder
Tagoross CoP was founded by AgustĂn Benito Bethencourt (toscalix), back in June 2026.
Toscalix is an independent consultant who help organizations to increase business impact by using open-source-as-strategy. His career spans more than 25 years at the intersection of open source and business, leading teams and holding executive, managerial, and consulting roles across different market segments in market leading organizations.
A long-time open source contributor, a regular speaker at industry events, and the author of the toscalix blog, AgustĂn founded Tagoross to build what his own career taught him was missing: a vendor-independent environment where he can support those leaders pushing open source within their organziations from a reactive risk management topic to a proactive strategic one, with greater business impact.
