Top SchoolPhilip Coates is a Knowledge Management Consultant and seasoned Linked Data/Semantic Web specialist with 11 years of professional experience and a track record of building pragmatic semantic solutions for enterprises across media, finance, and telecom. He co-founded Semantic Integration and Sparqlr.com, creating bespoke Linked Data platforms and a triplestore-as-a-service offering, and has since applied those skills at clients including BBC, Financial Times, Dow Jones, Thomson Reuters, and Tele2.
