Web 3.0 is the next phase of internet evolution. It uses semantic technologies to cope with challenges of scale, complexity, security, and mobility, as well as provides intelligent, rich media interaction and autonomous behaviour that make our experience of internet more relevant, useful, enjoyable (and profitable). This shift from information-centric to knowledge-centric patterns of computing and communication will fuel billion-dollar technology markets and trillion-dollar economic expansions worldwide over the next decade.
Semantic Exchange is a collaborative industry news, research, and education initiative about all things web 3.0 and semantic web. The website, http://www.semanticexchange.com/, is part community wiki, part internet magazine, part semantic technology sandbox, and part knowledge outfitter. Whether you are a newcomer to semantic technologies or already have experience with them, the goal of Semantic Exchange is to help you better keep up with the rapid pace of technology and infrastructure development, connect with the people and companies making the next stage of the internet happen, and understand the breadth of applications across consumer and enterprise industry sectors.
Over 20 industry-leading companies are already in the program and empolis is the first German company to join the initiative.
