Call for Speakers

Deadline is 9 October 2026

The world's number one KM event is back in London this Spring for KMWorld Europe 2027, brought to you by the team behind KMWorld, the world’s leading knowledge management conference, held annually in Washington, DC.

Whether you’re a seasoned KM practitioner, a curious technologist, or a strategist navigating the future of work, KMWorld Europe offers a space to exchange ideas, challenge assumptions, and build smarter solutions together. Join us as we shape the next chapter of knowledge management; one that’s inclusive, intelligent, and deeply human.

Where is Knowledge Management heading next?

As AI reshapes how organisations create, find, share and use knowledge, we want to explore what comes next for people, organisations, and the profession of KM.

How do we connect people, expertise, content, processes, relationships and organisational memory to create smarter, more connected organisations? We're looking for sessions that will deliver practical stories, fresh ideas and thought-provoking perspectives from people doing interesting things with knowledge.

We’re particularly interested in:

  • Organisational Intelligence
    How do we connect and activate what an organisation collectively knows?
  • AI + Knowledge Management
    From RAG and knowledge graphs to AI agents, copilots and human-AI collaboration.
  • Knowledge Architecture
    Semantic layers metadata and connected knowledge ecosystems.
  • Personal Knowledge Management
    How can individuals capture, organise, connect and make better use of what they know and how does personal knowledge become collective knowledge?
  • Human & Tacit Knowledge
    Expertise location, communities of practice, knowledge transfer and the knowledge that never makes it into a document.
  • The Future of KM
    New models, emerging technologies and ideas that challenge how we think about knowledge in organisations.
  • KM in Practice
    Real transformations, experiments, successes, failures and lessons learned.

But these are starting points, not boundaries.

Have you tried something that surprised you? Solved a difficult knowledge challenge? Developed a technique others could use? Or have an idea that doesn't fit neatly into a traditional KM category?

We want to hear about it.

Session Types

Sessions can be presentations, case studies, interactive workshops, roundtables, debates or other formats that create a valuable learning experience for our audience. We're particularly interested in sessions that are practical, engaging and grounded in real experience: including the failures and lessons along the way. Bring us your story. Help us shape the conversation at KMWorld Europe 2027.
