Neo4J User Group:CASE STUDY: how OpenCorporates uses Neo4j to provide insight April 24, 2013

We all know that corporations big and small use different legal entities and structures to "optimize" their operations. Whether it's to minimize tax payments, limit labour law exposure, or commit specific and intentional fraud, the corporate world is full of intimate linkages and hierarchies.

OpenCorporates, one of the world's best known open-data repositories for corporate data, aims to provide this transparancy to all of us. And to visualise the linkages and networks between corporate entities, they use Neo4j.

This case study, presented to you by Chris Taggart @CountCulture (CEO of OpenCorporates) will talk about the vision, strategy and functionality of OpenCorporates, as well as delve into the "lessons" learned from a technical perspective.
