Alan Ang

Hello there! My name is Alan (he/him). I am a Partner Manager at Wikimedia Deutschland. I am mainly responsible for reaching out to and onboard global institutions to the linked open data web via Wikidata and Wikibase projects. Apart from my full-time role at Wikimedia Germany, I am passionate about building up the Wiki community, Open Government projects and promoting the linked open data web across the world. When I was the Advisor to the Prime Minister of the Kyrgyz Republic (until 2020) pro-bono basis, I pushed for the digitisation of cultural and heritage sites to start digital tourism and promoted open data in various government agencies.
