Motivating others to see knowledge as a valuable company asset

My current company which is a fairly larger organization (> 2000 employees) limits what you can view on the Internet as well as what programs you can download.

The company overall doesn't see the value of informal learning or really being open to share ideas, documents, process, etc through company chat software, centralized document system, or a company wiki.

So my question to anyone out there in the blogsphere is how do you open the minds of people to become more active in using new technologies to leverage company knowledge?? Most people in my company view spending money on technologies as a waste of time unless they can tangibly see a profit in dollars without a lot of maintenance overhead.
