In our latest Talking with Talis podcast, I talk with Tom Ilube. Formerly CIO at pioneering Internet bank Egg, Tom is now CEO of UK-based Semantic Web startup Garlik.

During our conversation Tom describes his background, the problem-space that Garlik seeks to address, and the role that Semantic Web technologies play in this. Tom shares some of his experiences in attracting investment to Semantic Web-based companies, and suggests that this is becoming easier to accomplish.
