...a parte Enel, qualcuno conosce altri casi di apertura di basi dati aziendali?

Un saluto,

Hi Paolo,

Not necessarily in Italy but I know of these companies working on open data:

BBVA, Spanish bank is involved in Smart Cities, and doing open data on that basis
And in the oil and mining sector there is http://eiti.org/ 'Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative'

best,
Ton

Thank you Ton...it seems there are not so many companies with concrete projects or live portals yet...mostly good plans and intentions...isn't it?

Grazie Michele, mi scuso, avrei dovuto precisare meglio: mi interessano casi in ambiti diversi da quello dei media dove in effetti le iniziative non mancano, dal Guardian e NYT in poi....ho letto che si stanno muovendo alcuni grandi brand di servizi o prodotti più "materiali", come Nike, ma finora di concreto e visibile ho trovato poco...

Yes, it seems that way to me too.

I've noticed in conversations with companies that there is willingness to release data if it augments / complements government data that is being published. Or if it is not just one company but a wider group, or a sector, doing it.

Some companies see a competitive advantage in being transparent or being seen as transparent.

In response to Michele's mail just now, in the media sector there is indeed also some activity. I can mention Helsingin Sanomat, Finlands biggest newspaper. They have open data guidelines http://epsiplatform.eu/content/finnish-newspaper-has-open-data-guidelines on how to use open data, which includes releasing data themselves as open data again. I think in the media it is more about re-publishing data they have re-used or gathered themselves for their news stories, than about publishing data about their own company or product/service.

best,
Ton
