Wikimedia Enterprise is the Wikimedia Foundation's commercial product for large-scale reusers and distributors of Wikimedia content. Through Enterprise agreements, companies gain improved, commercial-grade access to Wikimedia content at a volume and scale they need, while directly supporting the Wikimedia Foundation's free knowledge mission.
