I-KNOW 07 - 7th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT

5 - 7 September 2007
Graz, Austria
http://www.i-know.at

Knowledge management has been called everything from innovative and
crucial to new wine in old bottles and dead. Usually, different
perceptions spring from different perspectives. The aim of I-KNOW is
to bring a broad array of these perspectives together, to learn from
each other and to jointly find promising ways ahead for the future.
In 2007, this will be reflected by putting special emphasis on
discovering and comprehensively managing knowledge relationships, and
on service-based knowledge management solutions.

Now in its seventh year, I-KNOW has a tradition of bringing together
Europe´s leading researchers and practitioners involved in knowledge
management. Attracting more than 500 attendees, I-KNOW is the premier
conference on knowledge management in Europe.
I-KNOW provides a perfect opportunity to stay abreast of the latest
developments in the field. Both the human/organizational perspective
and the technology perspective are covered. The novelty and the
quality of the accepted contributions are ensured by a high-calibre
program committee featuring international experts on a broad range of
knowledge management topics.

Beginning in 2007, I-KNOW will be complemented by I-MEDIA
(www.i-media.tugraz.at), the First International Conference on New
Media Technology, which will be held concurrently with I-KNOW. This
extension reflects the increasing importance and convergence of
knowledge management and new media technologies.
