Announcing the Data Sharing Workshop and Summit
I’ve been helping put together a Data Sharing Workshop and Summit, as part of an ongoing collaboration with DataPortability.org.
The Data Sharing Workshop
As a first step, the Workshop will provide a gathering space for different groups to have in-depth discussions about emerging data sharing standards and initiatives, and continue ongoing work by establishing Action Items to be carried out at subsequent events.
The Workshop will be on April 18th and 18th at the SFSU downtown campus in cooperation with the SFSU Institute for the Next Generation Internet.
The Data Sharing Summit
The Summit will take place a month later, providing enough time to further develop the ideas discussed at the Workshop while still being able to track progress. With the larger venue, participants from the Workshop will be able to share their ideas with a broader audience.
The Summit will be on May 15th at the Computer History Museumy in Mountain View, Ca, immediately following the Internet Identity Workshop.
As with the previous summit, which was facilitated by Kaliya Hamlin, aka Identity Woman, both events will follow the open space (un)conference format.
