Simplifying Access to Data

Open Data is a wonderful concept but....

Some data can never be made open (commercial, security, etc)

It takes time to convince people that data can be open

We have constructed a single legal framework so that you can access all this “extra” data in a single spot,

without complexity.

It also provides an secure means for sharing sensitive data from both the public and the private sectors

Simplifying Access to PeopleData may inspire, but it requires people to be innovative

Without the right context and understanding, data is just 1’s and 0’s

Dublinked will

Host focussed workshops on topics – such as water, transport

Provide means of asking questions about the data to the experts

Workshops to share problems and opportunities for collaboration

We want to be a conduit, to help connect people with problems with people with answers

How Can you Benefit??

Cities are increasingly complex, larger, richer and economic hubs

Dublin, and the local authorities are a major market, but Dublin is typical of many other cities around the world

Solution developers, be it social, operational or technical, can

Sell into the Dublin market, to the local authorities, to companies and to the citizens of Dublin

Use Dublin as a testbed for new solutions and then sell to London, Paris and Shanghai

The Dublin Authorities will proactively work withyou to prove your technology.

is a work in progress

We need your assistance and participation

We are here to help you succeed
