Georgi Kobilarov
I'm a semantic web researcher, working in the field of Linked Data integration. I run the Berlin-based R&D company Uberblic Labs, where we develop new methods and systems to integrate web data.
Before founding Uberblic Labs, I worked as a research associate in the Web-based Systems Group at Freie Universität Berlin and in the Semantic and Adaptive Systems Department at Hewlett-Packard Labs Bristol. I helped creating DBpedia, a project aiming at making the structured information in Wikipedia available in RDF, and participate in the Linking Open Data project.
