- Next month's KMWorld 2009 Conference & Exposition (kmworld.com/kmw09, November 17-19, San Jose McEnery Convention Center) offers a unique perspective on leveraging knowledge assets to survive the current economic conditions and poise your organization to rapidly capitalize as the economy rebounds. At KMWorld, attendees will learn how to support creativity and productivity by providing employees with the tools and tactics that makes their jobs easier by allowing information to be shared simply and effectively. Sharing knowledge within an organizational context is a priority for companies in 2009 and KMWorld is the premier technology event focused on managing organizational knowledge.

KMWorld's speaker lineup is headlined by three keynote presentations from the leading thinkers in the space: The Opening Keynote will be delivered by Andrew McAfee, Principal Research Scientist at MIT and author of Enterprise 2.0. McAfee's keynote focuses on how companies are embracing social software technologies and using them to streamline their business. On Wednesday, Charlene Li, co-author of Groundswell: Winning in a World Transformed by Social Technologies, will focus on the role of social technologies--search in particular--to maximize enterprise knowledge discovery and sharing. On the final day of KMWorld, attendees will hear insights on enterprise social tools and the knowledge organization from the man who coined the term 'folksonomy' Thomas Vander Wal, Principal & Senior Consultant at InfoCloud Solutions Inc. These keynotes set the tone for an event that features the leaders in all aspects of leveraging knowledge within organizations.
