Hi everyone,
Thank you very much for the pointers. What I am looking for is a dataset with, at least, a list of organizations and their city, if there is more information such as founders it will be good, if there are links between organizations even better. As much context as better I should say.
Pieter,
The KBO dataset is very detailed but it does not allow me to browse. Can I download the dataset or I need to know exactly which company I am looking for?
Phil,
The Open Corporates initiative is very interesting. They have browsing through their website but I could not see any kind of listing in their API. I will check it.
Kingsley,
The legalidentifier.info is very comprehensive. Thank you very much for all the pointers.
Best Regards, Bianca

Hello,
I was looking for a Linked Data dataset and I always find very challenging to find a dataset related to a given subject. I am specifically looking for a dataset (not wikipedia-based such as DBPedia, Yago and so on) that contains information about organizations.
I found there was a Linked CrunchBase [1] at some point but it does not seem to work anymore. Does anyone know any Linked Data dataset about organizations?
Best Regards, Bianca
Bianca,
Here's a little Linked Open Data follow-your-nose sequence that exposes data sources that could be relevant to your quest:

There's a lot more in the LOD Cloud cache, assuming this piques your interest :)
