public relations and press relations to futher cause of L(O)D

Are there any companies, non-profit organizations or research institutes that do outreach, PR or building awareness among press, decision-makers and other groups about linked (open) data, the semantic web and related technologies?

I talked to the director Cullen Hoback of the documentary film "Terms and Conditions May Apply" (www.tacma.net) and he commented on the fact that there are no ways to "re-tool" the internet to change the current state of affairs, which entails very little privacy and global surveillance and systemic mining of big data for all the wrong reasons.

LD, the semantic web and open access were an unknown factor for him.

This shows the need for better outreach.
