Highlights of 2014
Promoting the value of open data across the world
With the help of 22 ODI Nodes in 15 countries, we trained diverse
communities to use open data for social, economic and
environmental benefit.
Incubating and accelerating emerging talent
18 businesses that use or produce open data received ODI
mentorship, technical help and office space as part of our startup
programme. The first two cohorts have secured 4m in contracts
and investments while in the programme.
Mapping open data in business
We launched the UKs most comprehensive, systematic
assessment to date of how companies are creating value by
using and publishing open data.
Celebrating open data champions and pioneers
Our first ODI Awards celebrated inspiring innovators, experts and
pioneers in open data publishing, usage and impact. Five awards
shone a spotlight on excellence in business, innovation, social
impact, publishing and on an individual champion.
Paving the way for policy change
To coincide with the 2015 UK general election, our Open data
roadmap for the UK highlighted ways the government can
harness the benefits of open data for improved policy-making.
Helping government procurement benefit from open data
We advised governments and businesses how to use open data
to spot trends in markets and evaluate future opportunities.
Spreading open data knowledge
We held 43 free Friday lunchtime lectures at our HQ in London,
with guest speakers talking on broad subjects, from how
government data portals work, to turning footfall data into music.

ODI Summit
In November, 400 business leaders, innovators and open
data experts gathered over two days at the BFI Southbank in
London for the second annual ODI Summit. Between training
sessions, flash-talks, panel discussions, keynote speeches and
conversations over dinner, one central theme emerged.
The summit celebrated open innovation and its impacts across
cultural, economic, environmental and social spheres.
The training discovery day, gave 70 people a whistle-stop tour
of open data with interactive, hands-on and technical sessions
on publishing, data-viz, licensing and business.
Reflecting on 25 years of the web, Sir Tim Berners-Lee told us
about what had inspired him to invent it: that we should all be
able to link information together, whether private or public.
Amy Mather, 15-year-old European Digital Girl of the Year
(Ada Awards, 2013), explained why it doesnt matter who
codes, as long as everyone has the opportunity, regardless
of their age, sex or ethnicity.
Entrepreneur Hermann Hauser talked about innovation in
business, how scientific ideas and breakthroughs make it from
universities to companies and why machine learning is going
to be the most important thing since Turings enigma machine.
People told us the most memorable parts of the summit were
the conversations that happened as they moved through
the day: over coffee, outside by the Thames, surrounded by
the hustle and bustle of hundreds of people. These moments
shape what open data means for us and how we use it to
alter our environment, economy and society for the better.

Data as Culture
Art is a vital part of our cultural landscape. It stimulates critical
debate and encourages new perspectives on how open data
is changing our world.
Our Data as Culture art programme explores the wider
implications of the culture of open data, to challenge our
understanding of what data is and its impact on our lives.
Data means different things to different people. To artists,
it can be used as an art material, as something to play with,
to shape, to manipulate, to respond to and transform.
We broadened our collaboration this year, bringing new data
artworks to the London HQ office, FutureEverything festival in
Manchester, and the Lighthouse digital culture gallery in Brighton.
Works by Sam Meech, James Bridle, YoHa, James Brooks,
thickear and Paolo Cirio were exhibited across the three sites.
New commissions included thickears performance work
Pink Sheet Method, James Bridles database-driven
commission The Remembrancer was premiered at the V&A,
and a new online work was developed by Paolo Cirio to explore
personal browser data in Your Fingerprints on the Artwork
are the Artwork Itself.
Our partnership with The Space (a BBC and Arts Council England
initiative) enabled us to commission We Need Us, an online
animation and soundscape influenced by live open data
generated by users of citizen science site zooniverse.org. The
work was previewed at the launch of The Space in the Turbine
Hall at the Tate Modern, London, launched at TEDGlobal in Rio,
Brazil, and projected onto the Royal Festival Hall as part of the
Web We Want Festival.

#LifeAtTheODI
As our core team grows, as members join, as nodes emerge and
as startups move in and on: from summits to lectures, standups
to meetups, the community is enriched by sharing ideas,
knowledge and friendships.
Together, they also shape #LifeAtTheODI.
Our teams love to join training sessions or take their lunch into
our weekly Friday lectures. At our daily 10am standup we hear
from every team member about their objectives for the day (even
at 50 people, this only takes 10-15 minutes). Every fortnight we
hold a half-day whole-team session to drill into key areas, and
every three months we take everyone offsite to reflect on what
we have achieved, where we should be and how to get there.
As a result we feel we have balanced mission vs margin, adapted
to the market and built a great team environment.
Hello
We welcomed Alison Walters, Amanda Smith, Anna Scott,
Bryony Barrass, Carlina George, Clara Lewis, Dawn Duhaney,
Ellen Broad, Elpida Prasopoulou, Emma Truswell, Fiona Smith,
Hannah Redler, Iraia Monteagudo, Jack Hardinges,
Jamie Fawcett, Joe Packman, Kateryna Onyiliogwu,
Keren Bowman, Liz Carolan, Mandy Costello, Simon Bullmore,
Steffica Warwick, Sumika Sakanishi and William Gerry
to the team.
Au revoir
Stuart Coleman, Commercial Director set off for new pastures.
We wish him all the best.
