Dear Subscriber !

This issue of our newsletter has one focus: Linked data and controlled vocabularies in business environments. This is not only because we have designed our PoolParty Software Suite to be used as a tool for developing and maintaining Corporate Knowledge Graphs, it is also because Linked Data and Semantic Web Technologies have become key for enterprise data intergration. A trend which we want to document in this newsletter.

Find stories about "How Linked Data revolutionizes industry" within this newsletter.

With best regards,
Thomas Thurner
