The solution

Wolters Kluwer Legal & Regulatory’s main request was to diversify its product offerings, by including a holistic, taxonomy-based solution, in order to manage large amounts of data. PoolPartys revolutionary semantic approach to structured knowledge and data management made it possible to provide Wolters Kluwer with a thesaurus through the integration of a GraphDB Triple Store.

It’s been over a decade since Wolters Kluwer Legal & Regulatory, a global leading provider of professional information, software solutions, and services, and the Semantic Web Company (SWC) joined forces to embark on a journey of digital transformation. With customers across Europe and the U.S., Wolters Kluwer Legal & Regulatory has benefited from using taxonomy management capabilities in SWC’s PoolParty Semantic Suite to provide organic feedback within and beyond their companies.
