About @loleg
☑ Ideator ☑ Developer ☑ Staff
Hi, I'm Oleg, an IT professional based in Switzerland, director at Opendata.ch, local ambassador to the Open Knowledge network, member of /ch/open and one of the people behind make.opendata.ch events.
I'm passionate about the way the Internet is enabling people around the world to communicate, strengthen communities and improve livelihoods, and for this to continue I believe it is important to open and constantly improve access to information, build better tools for analyzing and making decisions with data, and encourage sustainable models for public service, business and research empowered by the Open Web (FR).
