The Center for Open Data Enterprise (CODE), a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Washington, DC, was founded in January 2015. CODE’s mission is to harness the power of open and shared data for the public good. We achieve our mission by working with government agencies, businesses, nonprofits, and researchers who are both data providers and data users. We support the application of fully open data - free, publicly available data that anyone can access and use, without limitation - as well as strategies for sharing and exchanging data that requires privacy or security restrictions. CODE focuses on the use of data for four critical public goals: achieving equity, climate action, improving health, and democratizing data.

At CODE, we believe in the power of collaboration and partner engagement to address real-world problems. Over the last decade, we have worked with the White House and a dozen Federal agencies across three administrations. We have also been fortunate to partner with philanthropic foundations, think tanks, intergovernmental organizations, and corporate and industry partners to advance the public use of data for good.
