For example, open DX for municipalities means \u201cvisualizing the current status of the municipality in real time, from the status of budget execution to the status of garbage collection, sharing administrative issues with citizens, and transforming the municipality into a citizen-participating government.\u201d Open DX for corporations means \u201cvisualizing the current status of the corporation in real time, from the status of budget execution to the status of sales, sharing management issues with employees, and transforming the corporation into an employee-participating management.<\/p>\n<p>The Barcelona Digital City Project is an example of a successful local government project. They have turned the old smart city approach of embedding sensors in the infrastructure around 180 degrees and are promoting DX by involving consumers. The key to this kind of open DX is data and data platforms. My research focuses on how to not only collect data, but also easily deliver the necessary data to the right people at the appropriate time.\n<\/p>\n<h2>Brief History<\/h2>\n<p class=\"fellow_brief\">Since 2012, Tomihiko Azuma has been working for the Open Knowledge Foundation Japan and Open Corporates Japan to promote open data.
