Private Sector Use of Government Data

The Governance Lab (The GovLab) at New York University is compiling a list of just “open data companies” — companies powered at least in part by open government data.

• The GovLab @ NYU Releases Preview of the First Comprehensive Study of Companies Using Open Government Data, by Laura Manley GovLab Blog NYU, (December 17, 2013).
• Candidates for the OD500. A preliminary list of 500 companies that may meet the criteria for the Open Data 500.
• Warren Buffett Uses Open Government Data, By Joseph Marks, NextGov (January 23, 2014).
  

  The list should add fuel to the White House’s argument that opening up federal agencies’ data could inject billions into the economy.
