Today, OKFN Greece released a press statement about its brand new Open Data Hub!
The press release was accompanied by a greeting from Neelie Kroes which is very valuable for us:
Open data is a very powerful lever for both a better economy and society. Open data is fuel for innovation, it is a tool for transparency, for better government and policy. At a time when many Greeks are looking for new sources of inspiration and hope, I am pleased to say that the Open Knowledge Foundation is one of those sources. I encourage all public bodies to support this effort. Whether the task is finding a job or spending tax money wisely, open data can help
