We're just received an offer of collaboration/support from a company
called Euroalert.

Any thoughts?

Hi Jonathan!

You can find out a bit of my background and activities in my profile and
in Open Economy blog:

Euroalert is building and selling for subscribers around Europe, several
innovative services based on the re-use of PSI, mainly public
procurement information and EU information. We provide that information
via widgets or web services and we also do data-mining on tenders to
help market intelligence for companies.

Last November we participated in a roundtable on open data organized by
Proyecto Aporta in FICOD 2009:

We would like know if it can be interesting for OKFN our contribution as
a company committed to open knowledge. We can provide some support in
several ways, like disseminating activities, share some of our cloud
infrastructure to host web projects or any other thing you might propose.

Best regards and let me know your views so we can go on discussing
possibilities.
