KMWorld (Knowledge Management World) conference and co-located conferences of Taxonomy Boot Camp, Enterprise Search & Discovery, Text Analytics Forum, and the new Enterprise AI World, will take place November 6-9 at the JW Marriott in Washington, DC. I will be giving several talks on taxonomies, communities of practice, and “Generative AI, Context, & Knowledge Models” I can offer the sponsor discount code of VIPPOOL for 30% off for any ticket option. If you live in the area and don’t have time/budget to attend, access to the vendor exhibits is only $25. This includes taxonomy management software vendors, such as PoolParty and others. The vendor showcase is open:

Hope to see some of you there. https://www.kmworld.com/Conference/2023/default.aspx

Sorry, I have continued to miss meetings. Last Thursday I was flying back from California, where I was at LavaCon and then visiting PoolParty customers in southern California. Yesterday I was off while my brother from out-of-state was visiting. Maybe next week. The following week, November 9, I will be at the KMWorld conference. Anyone else going to KMWorld?

Sorry. I will be in the office in Vienna next week, and I have meetings in person with my colleagues. The week after I will be on vacation, and the week after that I am getting ready for LavaCon. However, I don’t have a lot to report, as I was delivering one half-day workshop and contributing to another the first day. And now I am mostly at the PoolParty exhibit booth the second and third day.

Ah, yes I know that’s going on at the same time. It’s more convenient for you there.

I am SEMANTiCS in Leipzig!

As a reminder, The SEMANTiCS conference is hybrid, so if you are not traveling to Leipzig next week, you can still register for the online option. Single day online is just € 60, and 3-day online is just € 180. https://2023-eu.semantics.cc/page/programme and registration: and registration at: https://2023-eu.semantics.cc/page/registration

I gave a webinar yesterday for a nontechnical introduction to knowledge graphs, aimed at information architects, taxonomists, content strategists, etc. The recording is now available, if you want to share it with your nontechnical colleagues to explain knowledge graphs: https://www.poolparty.biz/events/webinar_knowledge_graphs_for_information_professionals/

The full schedule of sessions for the SEMANTiCS conference (20-22 September, Leipzig) is now up on the conference website. https://2023-eu.semantics.cc/page/programme Descriptions are available for tutorials (I am leading one and assisting in another) and workshops, and descriptions will be added for regular sessions soon. Registration costs much less than conferences in the U.S. There is the option to register for single days, rather than the entire conference, and the option to register for virtual/online participation, if you are unable to join us in Leipzig.
