Description

"Over the past few years, there has an explosive growth in open data with significant uptake in government, research and elsewhere. Open data has the potential to transform society, government and the economy, from how we travel to work to how we decide to vote. But we have only just begun down this road, and the going, even so far, has not always been easy.

My talk introduced the idea of open data, explaining how, and why, we are where we are today, and, finally, took a look to the future of the rapidly evolving open data ecoystem."
