KM World 2008

By Bill Ives

Who would have imagined that there would be a KM World 2008 when KM broke into the scene in the early 90s. But yes, the 12th KM World will be back, a bit early this year.

It appears on September 23 - 25, 2008 at its usual venue, the San José McEnery Convention Center San José, CA.

It is nice to see it still going and it did not even change its name like some other conferences. I did see enterprise 2.0 track and even an Information Architecture 3.0 session so it is keeping up with the times.

KM remains alive and well.

The roster includes some of the usual suspects and some new faces. I think I have participated in six of the prior eleven.

A Google search of "km world" this blog turned up 74 entries led off by my post on "Thinking for a Living" - Thomas Davenport at KM World.

I will be there is spirit this year. The Enterprise Search West conference is being held at the same time and location. It should be a good event and a reunion for many in the field. I enjoyed my last trips. Be sure to see the nearby San Jose Art Museum.
