Summary
Cristian Vasquez is a consultant specialising in knowledge graphs, ontologies, and AI with 14 years of hands-on experience building semantic data platforms for companies and EU institutions from Brussels. He combines academic rigour from PhD research on emergent semantics with practical engineering—designing linked data pipelines, reasoner-enhanced RAG systems, and Linked Data publishing strategies. His career spans startups, research labs, and industry roles where he migrated legacy systems, developed personal-dataspace smart agent demonstrators for healthcare and e-government, and contributed to European skills and qualifications projects. As a self-employed consultant since 2019, he helps organisations operationalise data governance and integrate heterogeneous sources into interoperable knowledge graphs. Notably, he brings both the product-minded perspective of an early founder and the technical depth of a semantic web practitioner, enabling solutions that bridge research prototypes and production deployments.
