By this point, you all know governance is one of my favorite topics to dive deep into, and this week, API Intersection, we had the talented Mark Boyd, director of Platformable, join us for a discussion of just that. Mark was one of the early and prolific bloggers on the topic of APIs and the API economy. His journey took him from urban planning and health data systems to becoming a prominent figure in the API space. Mark later founded Platformable, a Barcelona-based startup building data products and digital tools for a global audience of nonprofits, businesses, startups, and multilateral organizations focusing on developing open ecosystems through APIs.  Working with a multitude of nonprofits and government agencies, Mark has had a variety of experiences in creating APIs and governance programs that can fit the standards and qualifications needed by these agencies. Let's get to it. Take a look at platformable.com to Mark and his team's work, and be sure to check out Mark on LinkedIn. _____To subscribe to the podcast, visit https://stoplight.io/podcast --- API Intersection Podcast listeners are invited to sign up for Stoplight and save up to $650!
