Professional knowledge-sharing platform

 

On Monday 25 November, Europeana signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the BBC in London, UK.

The BBC signed four MoUs supporting free and open internet technologies with the Europeana Foundation, the Open Data Institute, the Open Knowledge Foundation and the Mozilla Foundation.

These agreements will enable closer collaboration between the BBC and each of the four organisations on a range of mutual interests, including the release of structured open data and the use of open standards in web development. One aim of this agreement is to give clear technical standards and models to organisations who want to work with the BBC and give those using the internet a deeper understanding of the technologies involved. The MoUs also bring together several existing areas of research and provide a framework to explore future opportunities.
