The conference will be located almost exactly at the geographic centre of Europe. Passau is close to the metropolitan area of Munich. According to a statement attributed to Alexander von Humboldt, Passau is referred to as one of the seven most beautiful towns of the world. Passau is spectacularly located at the confluence of three rivers, one of them being the river Danube, the second longest river of Europe.
Knowledge management has become an accepted discipline within the field of Information Systems and is now well anchored in the operations of many companies. Continuing the success of the ECKM conference series, this conference will provide a communication forum bringing together academia and industry for discussing the progress made and addressing the challenges faced in organizations. Building upon existing work on knowledge management and organizational learning, the conference will promote interdisciplinary approaches from computer science and information systems, business, management and organization science as well as cognitive science. We invite therefore researchers and practitioners to report on the current state of KM projects, share success stories and failures, and discuss promising new ideas, tools and approaches that enable organizations to systematically draw benefit from KM activities.
We are looking forward to seeing you at Passau and expect lively discussions and new insights!
