Sören visited LOD2 partner KAIST and gave a lecture on Linking Enterprise Data in KAIST’s distinguished lecture series. On the second day of Sören’s short trip to Korea, we participated in the Open Data Conference of the Information Society Agency (NIA). NIA seems to be implementing a comprehensive Open Data strategy (also involving LinkedData). Looks like South Korea is quite advanced in this regard already. In addition to my talk about Linked Open Government Data, there was also a talk by Haklae Kim about the Korean Open Knowledge foundation chapter. There were also some industry representatives (Samsung, LG) in the audience and interested in applying Linked Data in enterprise environments.
