Re: Are there any datasets about companies? ( DBpedia Open Data Initiative)

Hi Sebastian,

Open PermID and Open Calais [1,2] initiatives from Thomson Reuters with
Linked Data + bulk download (CC-BY 4.0) might be of interest to your
work. Brian Ulicny presented it in ISWC 2015 [3] and it has identifiers
curated and maintained by Thomson Reuters for more than 3.5 million
organizations .

It also has several useful information about those organizations.
