Hi Thad, It is a really great project, I quote some of the points of Sebastian:

Some data in opencorporates are incomplete - like founders, capital raised, investors, despite some info is fed from users. Currently most data is about US and NZ, Id like t see EU more represented. I would like to have possibility to visualise a network of companies and their participations. And build bypartite graphs between personas and companies. I will try to reach them, about cooperation for such a project. Do you have connections with them?
