The Semantic Web is opening up new business opportunities, by making it possible to extract, link and process information based on its actual meaning. In this session, we will be joined through video skype by David Siegel, the author of Pull: The Power of the Semantic Web to Transform Your Business, to animate a roundtable discussion on how the semantic web will change business, which applications offer the most potential (is it advertising, social media, data integration, knowledge management, others?) and which ones might turn out to be dead-ends.
Come with your ideas and questions. This will be a lively session with audience participation and discussion.
