The five finalists will pitch their project in a Challenge lightning round at the Summit and to a panel of judges who will choose winning teams for the following prizes:


-2017 LODLAM Open Data Prize - A winner will be awarded this USD$1,000 prize where making cultural heritage material openly available has been a core aspect of a linked open data project. Synaptica<http://www.synaptica.com/> provides continued support for making data openly available and have provided the sponsorship for the prize.
