The document summarizes the work of the Open Data Institute (ODI) in catalyzing open data ecosystems to unlock social, environmental, and economic value. It provides examples of how open data has improved education, energy policy, and public transportation. The ODI works to build open data capabilities through short courses, research and development, and convening stakeholders from government, academia and business. Within its first six weeks, the ODI had opened offices, hosted multiple events bringing together hundreds of people, supported startups working onsite, and launched initiatives like an open data-driven art competition.
