Public sector information online: democratic, social and economic potentials
Description of the workshop
The Workshop took place within the auspices of the Internet Governance Forum 2010: ‘Developing the Future Together’ and was jointly organised by Proyecto Aporta and the European Public Sector Information Platform.
The aim of the workshop was to provide an open discussion forum and a meeting point for public sector, businesses and citizens in the endeavour to work together and understand and meet the challenges of unveiling the value of public sector information in the digital economy and for the benefit of citizens and the whole society.
The workshop focused on learning more about the value of public sector information when it is opened up for re-use. It is meant to stimulate dialogue, discussion and debate starting at the economic and social potential value of public sector information for citizens, moving on to its economic promising contribution to economic growth through innovative business models and then examining the future challenges of e-government.
