VIVO

VIVO is an open source, semantic-web tool for research discovery -- finding people and the research they do. Supports searching, browsing and visualizing research activity in order to discover people, programs, facilities, funding, scholarly works, and events.

They host annual conferences, and
behave like a rather serious enterprise. Their 2014 VIVO conference
will be in Austin TX.

"An interdisciplinary network
Enabling collaboration and discovery among scientists across all disciplines."

Sounds like a knowledge federation.

"The network of scientists will facilitate scholarly discovery.
Institutions will participate in the network by installing VIVO, or by
providing semantic web-compliant data to the network."

What's more, the entire platform is OSS, Java, BSD licensed.
