RE: Good news from the EBI Semantic Web Industry Workshop and LODD members

It's organised by EBI. They have an industry programme, where companies pay a fee to be member and then have access to training, meetings etc. I/we are not members so I do not know the details.

No, it's not related to the Pistoia Alliance 

Cheers,

Claus

are the presentations/program somewhere available?

was there any representative of a biotech company attending such workshop?

is it somehow related to the Pistoia Alliance?
