Scope of Event

The benefits of linked data and advanced semantic applications have been documented in many different articles and research papers, and many companies are adopting some form of semantic web technology to solve IT problems or extend their feature list. The question whether to become an early adopter or follower is still open to debate, and nowhere is this more relevant than in enterprise content management.

This event is hosted at the beautiful Schloss Leopoldskron in Salzburg, Austria. 

• value of including semantics in your business
• overview of semantic enabled technologies: Promise vs. Already in use
• demonstration of tools for creating your own semantic enabled business
• showcase of industry application scenarios - where are the markets?
• market adoption use cases: return on investment assessment
• access to a network of developers and users.
  

Agenda:

• Day 1 - SEMANTIC ENTERPRISE TECHNOLOGIES in action
• Day 2 - SEMANTIC TECHNOLOGIES explained
  
• Days 3&4 (Optional) Developer days - Hack4Stanbol&VIE
  

Who should attend?
For CIOs IT Managers and developers who want to learn about how semantic technologies will change the way information is managed and consumed. Move ahead of your competition by getting involved in a project that is defining future standards in information and content management. This event is also an excellent opportunity to meet with other CIOs and IT Managers to discuss how information will be managed in the future.

Download Presentation

Starting out as an non-techie communications officer, where the web was only one of many communication channels ending up as an IT strategist trying to forecast what role web technology will play in Region Västra Götaland 5-10 years from now. Combining that with practical hands-on work, by launching usable services today.

In between these seemingly different aspects of intranet/internet use Kristian has been working as a communications manager, project manager, infomaster and webmaster. Always seeing web technology as an enabler for making everyday work in the organisation just a little better, step by step.Early on Kristian realized that web standards made the web based services of yesterday work in today’s and tomorrows browsers. In recent years his interest in web standards has spread to providing findability with the help of metadata, semantics and better usability and spreading the work of his organisation as Open Source.
