Is Linked Data as mature enough to be used on a large scale in enterprises? This question has to be asked, when we look on current solutions, new developments and future perspectives of the use of Semantic Technologies in enterprise environments.

This Meetup gathers experts which are deeply involved in projects on the edge between Business/Enterprise Informatics and Linked Data.
