Enrico Daga has a PhD in Artificial Intelligence and has carried out research on Web Semantics and Ontology Engineering since 2008, first at the Italian National Research Council (CNR) and then at the Knowledge Media Institute of The Open University in the UK, where he leads the OU Linked Data initiative. After playing key roles in R&D projects related to the development of intelligent systems for Ontology Engineering (NeOn) and Smart Cities (MK: Smart).
His research is exploring the application of knowledge-based methods to support scholarship in the humanities and developing novel data curation pipelines through intelligent processing of licence and policy metadata.
A former student of Music and Performing Arts (University RomaTRE), Enrico is founder and chair of the WHiSe Workshop on Humanities in the Semantic Web (http://whise.kmi.open.ac.uk). Currently, he is Technical Director of the award-winning MK: Data Hub and the related CityLABS project, a ERDF initiative aiming at supporting the development of SMEs in the SEMLEP region through knowledge transfer from the academy to industry.
