Dr. Benedikt Hitz-Gamper

Benedikt Hitz-Gamper is in charge of consulting at the Research Center for Digital Sustainability at the Institute of Computer Science at University of Bern. His subjects include Open Data, Linked Data, Open Infrastructure and data visualization. His main consulting strategy centres around working with the clients to get through to the most important questions. In his experience, this is often more difficult than actually answering them together as a team.
