Reclaiming Data as a Public Resource

Davor Meersman, Mona Caroline Chammas, Michela Magas, Jonas Schorr

2021 English Equality & Equity Finance & Resourcing Public Infrastructures & Space Technology & Data

Data is now the nervous system of our cities, but have we absorbed the implications of what that means for our legal frameworks and governance systems? Our digital world has opened up countless opportunities for greater efficiency and connection, but it has also come at a cost: Who owns the digital platforms? Can they be trusted? How can data become a public good?

In this conversation we hear from conceptual pioneers, creative practitioners and legal experts who are challenging existing regimes and advocating for commons-based, citizen-driven approaches to making places that work for all.

This session is part of a 5-part series run by the BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt’s ‘RISE Cities’ programme. RISE Cities explores the leadership required to enable our urban environments to be more resilient, intelligent, sustainable and equitable (RISE).

Davor Meersman

CEO and Co-Chair, Strategy / The Maximal Impact Foundation

Davor Meersman is the founding CEO and Co-Chair, Strategy of The Maximal Impact Foundation (MIMPACT), a not-for profit organisation that brings open ethics, inclusive governance, digital commons, and impact finance to global ecosystems to create pivotal change for societies around the world. The foundation is a trusted, open, and inclusive environment for change makers, dent makers and all sorts of other makers, builders, and leaders who tackle wicked global problems with proven mechanisms and open practices – together.

Prior to MIMPACT, Davor was CEO of OASC, a not-for-profit city network that works with cities and communities around a set of interoperability mechanisms. Davor is also an honorary member of the United Nations SDG 11 Global Council, member of the European Commission’s Steering Committee on Advanced Technologies for Industry, and a judge and mentor for Belgium’s largest start-up incubator programme. He holds a PhD in Information Systems from Curtin University, Australia.

Jonas Schorr

Partner / Urban Impact

Jonas Schorr is Partner at Berlin-based Urban Impact Agency and Urban Impact Capital with a mission to connect and accelerate Europe’s emerging Urban Tech startup ecosystem.

Jonas believes that truly transformative change to green cities can only happen if fast-scaling innovators and established players (public and private) work together in a spirit of mutual cooperation to enable what he calls “conscious disruption”. In 2020, he was invited to join the BMW Foundation’s “Responsible Leaders Network” to connect with like-minded change makers globally.

Prior to co-founding Urban Impact, Jonas spent ten years working on a variety of international projects in the field of sustainable city-making across Europe and Asia. His clients included city governments, international city networks, think tanks, philanthropies and academic institutions.
