Many countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council have recently launched national open data campaign, and it is very interesting to examine the way these countries have decided to legally make their data open. For example, Oman and Saudi have each created their own open data licences, while Qatar chose to adopt a Creative Commons Attribution licence. This panel will examine the practical differences between the open data licensing approaches used by GCC countries and their pros and cons.
The panel moderator is Maram Al-Balushi and the panelists are Riyadh Al-Balushi and Al-Waleed Al-Kiyumi.
