TIME FLIES! It's already been almost TWO months since KGC 2026, and we are more than happy to welcome 100+(‼️) new Slack members since then. Thank YOU ALL for joining!!! I'm Min, your community manager. We are actively brainstorming ways to make this space more ENGAGING and USEFUL for everyone! So apologies for the @channel tag, but we really wanted everyone to see this. Bear with us as we figure this out together! This is a community of practitioners: data engineers, ontologists, AI researchers, knowledge architects, and everyone building in the KG space. The vibe is collaborative and very much "let's actually figure this out TOGETHER" Where to start: - 🔒[private feed] - introduce yourself! Where are you from, what are you building, what brings you to the KG world - Ask - your questions belong here. No question too basic, no rabbit hole too deep - Share - papers, posts, repos, tools worth passing around Where the good stuff lives: - Daily Kg Trends - we scrape 8 KG-related stories every day from trusted sources. Go hit the thumbs up on links that were useful to you - we use those reactions to curate better content for the community! - Book Club Ontology - for the ontology nerds (you know who you are) Larry S. would, from time to time host virtual hang outs! - 🔒[private feed] - taxonomy and classification deep dives - Kgc Social Buzz - what's happening in the broader KG community online - Events - KGC events, AMAs, and community sessions - Jobs - hiring and opportunities in the KG/AI space - Promotions - tools, products, and services Locked channels: - 🔒[private feed] - KGC Learn program alumni only, let Maru C. know if you are interested in the program! Also find us on social - we are ACTIVELY posting KG content, event recaps, and community highlights: - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-knowledge-graph-conference/?viewAsMember=true - X: https://x.com/KGConference - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knowledgegraphconference/ A couple of things that keep this place great:

If you want to host a session, propose a study group, or just have a question that might spark a good thread, just post it and TAG ME!! That's how this community grows! 🌳🌳 Really glad to have you here. Go introduce yourself in 🔒[private feed]!! It's totally fine if you've been a member for a while! 😂

Hey everyone! Wanted to share this in case it's relevant for you or someone on your team. The Builder Summer Cohort is now enrolling for May 29 - August 21. It's a 12-week program with four micro-certificates covering knowledge graph fundamentals (build, query, maintain). The format is a mix of self-paced lessons and a live session every three weeks. First micro-certificate is free. Total cost is $350 if you continue through all four. One thing worth knowing: the cohort needs a minimum of 40 participants to run, so if you've been thinking about it, now's the time. Also, the May 29 kickoff session (12:00-1:30pm Eastern) is mandatory to participate. You can preview the syllabus here: https://drive.google.com/file/u/4/d/1kAq3jtGVvu2bA-Yd8vdlEPnNIv4lnz3H/view?usp=drive_link And the Kickoff deck here: https://drive.google.com/file/u/4/d/10uaHC-AusVOKv8dsRvMYUZ5zUs4PSQiR/view?usp=drive_link Pre-register here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1zK9mVHDe79lHgCVeaKiNVkDLa0yqMuTIz6nwekvIH1E/edit If you have any questions, don't hesitate to DM Maru C.
