Dear Colleagues, SEMANTiCS2014 is a venue, where different communities meet. These communities include business and research, and also different horizontals and verticals. Thus, SEMANTiCS has a huge potential in shaping the European research and innovation with regard to applying different technologies (semantic, data, language, and others) for solving real world problems. We would like to take this opportunity and create a venue at the conference – a session that may have an impact on our fields in the future. The session will sketch directions we are targeting and link parties working on complementary topics or searching for solutions of problems. We will go beyond a typical H2020 matchmaking session. The voice of the community will be heard. As Linked Data technology has matured and has proven its effectiveness in some areas, we – as a community – should discuss what strategies there are to drive the Linked Data economy to a boom in Europe. In this 60-minute session, we will listen to Linked Data leaders and experts from the community about the potentials and current shortcomings of Linked Data as well as their individual opinion about the direction Horizon 2020 should go to provide effective support for Linked Data adoption by businesses. The session is open for everyone that would like to share his point of view. This may be done, filling in the form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1VF3Heb3_m7VeYb19LZR-hllVut1oQVxERXLhGRWL0J8/viewform We would also like you to promote your organisation in order to set up consortia to apply for funding. We will allow all attendees of SEMANTiCS to submit an organisation profile description, so they can be contacted by potential partners. These descriptions will be made available to all attendees of SEMANTiCS in a printed form to facilitate networking at (and after) the conference. If you are interested, we would kindly ask you to fill out this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1ZRsJylyVwZ1x3BwAdXVp_Dia-cVUDvd8fuN4wYzktuk/viewform (Available for registered participants only) You can read more about the session at the SEMANTiCS2014 website: http://www.semantics.cc/programme/talks/h2020-towards-a-linked-data-driven-economy-for-europe/ Let's create the Linked Data driven economy for Europe together! Best regards, Agata Filipowska, Tatiana Gornostay and Sebastian Hellmann |
