The World Bank Open Data Initiative launched 18 months ago. It's been a hit - every day, 15,000 visitors from across the world enjoy free access to over 1,200 carefully curated indicators via the web, our apps and APIs.

So, what's next for data.worldbank.org? We want to build on our success: an improved site design; new data; financial and operational information; maps and spatial data; new tools, apps and visualizations; community helpdesks and social features are just some of the many things we're thinking about.

But we want to hear about what you think.  Join Tariq Khokhar, the World Bank's open data evangelist, on September 13th for a discussion about the future of open data at the World Bank.
