[kictanet] Open Data Vital, says web inventor

Mon Nov 4 10:12:53 EAT 2013

Dear Sean,

Thanks for the invite. I would certainly be more than happy to make a
presentation or take part in the panel discussion during the AITEC Summit.
However I will be out of the country during this period.

Hope to take part in a future similar discussion.

Regards
Sammy

Would you like to speak about this in the East African Internet Forum that

You could do this making a presentation or in a panel discussion. Others are
welcome to contribute as well.

Regards,

How about the Western governments as a good place to start?

It is interesting to see that a lot of these initiatives are relevant to the
developing world and not the developed world.

The inventor of the World Wide Web has said governments and companies "must
not shy away" from giving the public free access to sensitive information.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee, who launched the web on Christmas Day 1990, argued that
open data was essential in " fighting poverty, accelerating industry and
innovation, and reducing corruption".
