For several weeks, a competition had been underway to designate the seller who would find the official Odoo sponsor on the Humans.team platform, a role estimated at $50,000 in visibility. This competition, designed to reward involvement and commitment, was meant to mark a symbolic milestone in the evolution of our community.

But today, I made the decision to temporarily suspend this competition.

Why? Because I believe it is fairer and more strategic to first propose an official partnership to Odoo.com.

Humans.team and Odoo can, together, build a bridge between free technology, ethical economy, and shared abundance. The time has come to create a direct link with Odoo, as the benefits of such an alliance are immense – for them as well as for us.

Why Odoo should respond to this call

While waiting for their return, here are 20 clear and concrete reasons why Odoo would greatly benefit from joining the Humans.team adventure:

1. Access to a new market segment: solopreneurs, creators, and micro-enterprises are at the heart of Humans.team.
2. Strengthening the brand image by partnering with a deeply ethical project.
3. International visibility through our storytelling, our videos, and our virality.
4. Expansion of their global network through our members and partners.
5. Positioning in a solidarity economy, more humane and more sustainable.
6. Innovation laboratory for new modules: marketplace, affiliation, AI, blockchain…
7. Validation of their technology through a large-scale public implementation.
8. Collaborative development of features requested by a real grassroots community.
9. Enhanced CSR communication through concrete social use cases.
10. Alignment with the OCA philosophy: autonomy, collaboration, transparency.
11. Indirect financial support for open source through our shared funds.
12. International multilingual adoption, with global growth potential.
13. Engagement of new developers in the Odoo ecosystem.
14. Experimentation with innovative business models.
15. Reduction of customer acquisition cost thanks to our natural virality.
16. Enhancement of an open source ERP in a human and transparent context.
17. Active support for universal values: respect, autonomy, privacy.
18. Multiplatform network effect, with future integrations.
19. Organization of exclusive events focused on social and tech innovation.
20. Creation of a global showcase project for Odoo.

This partnership would be win-win at all levels: strategic, technological, human, and economic.

I am convinced that the best way to honor the values of Humans.team is to offer genuine collaboration to those who share the same vision of the world.

Thank you all for your understanding and support.

The story continues.
