One of the areas I would focus on is data that is locked in siloed government data stores.
I'll give you a very simple example, I was working with the Government of Slovenia and I met with their bureau of statistics. One of the challenges they had is.... I don't know whether anybody here has worked with statistical data, but government statistical data is often locked inside very specific, very narrow, and niche statistics systems and is made available in very strange and, even from a technology point of view, almost impenetrable data formats. What was interesting was that the Slovenian bureau of statistics people were very familiar with the Canadian bureau of statistics, so from one statistics bureau to another they had a relationship and were familiar with each other's work. However, from a broad citizen perspective, the citizens really couldn't get easy access to this data.
I think the point was made before that much of the data that's locked in some of those siloed government data stores is really rich, valuable data for citizens, analysts, researchers, and even private entities. It's worth looking at how we get that data out of locked systems and make it more available to end users, citizens, and consumers using common tools and access methods that they have today.
