A&B ready for take off of open data

ST JOHN’S, Antigua – An assessment team from the World Bank said Antigua & Barbuda is poised to become the regional leader in Open Data, but that government will have to lead the way.
“This really is an all of government effort and so it requires political backing from an overall champion leader for the Open Data initiative,” said Anat Lewin, World Bank operations officer.
In late April, the Ministry of Telecommunications hosted a team from the World Bank and the Caribbean Open Institute, which assessed the nation’s Open Data readiness.
