Data.world: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)

data.world makes it easy for everyone—not just the “data people”—to get clear, accurate, fast answers to any business question. Our cloud-native data catalog maps your siloed, distributed data to familiar and consistent business concepts, creating a unified body of knowledge anyone can find, understand, and use. data.world is also home to the world’s largest collaborative data community. It’s where people team up on everything from social bot detection to award-winning data journalism. We use what we learn from this community to improve the enterprise product and vice versa. Our team co-created the Manifesto for Data Practices, the most effective, ethical, and modern approach to data teamwork. More people signed the Manifesto for Data Practices in its first year than signed the Agile Manifesto in its first two years combined. In 2019 DataPractices.org became a Linux Foundation Project. The vendor-neutral community features new, open courseware to help people and organizations improve data practices through inclusion, experimentation, accountability, and impact. We are a Public Benefit Corporation. Most corporations are required to prioritize shareholder returns above all else. Not us. We are legally structured as a Public Benefit Corporation so we can pursue our mission and shareholder value with equal vigor. This ability is rare, powerful, and sustaining.
