Knowledge Graphs for AI in the Enterprise Columbia University presents the first major knowledge graph technology conference. Knowledge graphs are a defining technology that will transform data management in the next decades and we want to be leaders of the transformation. Knowledge graphs:
<UL>
<LI>provide an elegant solution to the complex problem of data management in the enterprise</LI>
<LI>are a mature technology and adoption is growing fast</LI>
<LI>have a very strong potential backed by decades of research</LI>
</UL>
As an educational institution, we also realize there is a need to educate and enable a community to facilitate technology adoption. The goals of this conference are thus:
<UL>
<LI>to showcase major knowledge graphs implementations</LI>
<LI>to educate on how knowledge graphs are built, maintained and used</LI>
<LI>to build a community around technology leaders</LI>
</UL>
We have gathered world experts representing leading organizations working with knowledge graphs. See below the list of speakers and presentations. We are building this conference as a yearly forum gathering the community around this topic. This year's theme: knowledge graphs for AI in the enterprise, will be strongly represented in the program.
