Abstract :
Noting the need to extend the corpus of knowledge on open government data initiatives, especially on the strategies to facilitate and attract businesses and citizens to participate, collaborate and re-use open government data, this paper presents a research-in-progress case study on an open data initiative by the Singapore Government. Preliminary findings indicate that open innovation can be gainfully employed to realize the underlying motivation of open data initiatives. This research also builds upon existing study in open innovation strategies. It posits a set of considerations to develop the open government data portal into an open innovation platform. It also establishes a set of considerations for enticing businesses and citizens to create e-services that leverage on the datasets available from the portal. Implications to both research and practice of open government data initiatives are presented. The paper concludes with a discussion on the future research direction of this study.
