Hi Bianca,
Concerning KBO there are several access points.
You can dereference the identifiers e.g. http://data.kbodata.be/organisation/0476_068_080#id http://data.kbodata.be/organisation/0476_068_080#id There is a full text search facility, a OpenRefine compliant reconciliation API, a sparql endpoint and a linked data fragment server all accessible (with examples) from the home page at http://kbodata.be/ http://kbodata.be/. The dataset itself is downloadable at http://data.kbodata.be/download/kbo.zip http://data.kbodata.be/download/kbo.zip.
Hope this helps.
Paul

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 http://legalidentifier.info/ is very comprehensive. Thank you very much for all the pointers.
Best Regards, Bianca

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?
