Raymond Luk, Hockeystick's Founder and CEO, will provide a sneak peek of Hockeystick's massive new open data project that will be released in late April. This will be the largest open database ever assembled on Canadian startups, Angels, accelerators, VCs and government funders. Working with government partners, investors, and companies, Hockeystick is creating a valuable new data source on innovation in Canada (and beyond).

In this talk, Raymond will discuss:

    • The importance of taxonomies, and getting people to adopt them
    • Matching data across multiple open datasets: lessons learned
    • How to combine public and private data in one platform
    • Potential future uses of Hockeystick open data
