After the great success of the first Leipziger Semantic Web Tag (LSWT) in 2009 AKSW is organizing another installment of this event on 6th May. In addition to demonstrating the benefits of semantic technologies to enterprises, this year’s LSWT focuses on Open Data in science and E-government. A particular highlight will be the festive announcement of the German chapter of the Open Knowledge Foundation. More information on the LSWT can be found (in German) at: http://aksw.org/Events/2010/LeipzigerSemanticWebDay.

Today is the Leipziger Semantic Web Day 2009 in Leipzig, which is the status meeting for LE4SW project. We’re lucky to welcome more than 60 guests in the Villa Ida in Leipzig/Gohlis, which is more than our firstly booked room could host.

In the context of our recently started BmBF funded WK-Potential project LE4SW we organize a Leipziger Semantic Web Tag (LSWT) in order to get more in touch with enterprises from Saxony and to raise awareness about the opportunities Semantic Web technologies offer for small and medium sized companies. The day will take place at the marvelous Mediencampus Villa Ida and will comprise talks about fundamental Semantic Data Web technology pillars as well as presentations from an application and user perspective.
