The industry track seeks to present the state of adoption of semantic technologies in industrial settings. Semantics is used in applications in many industries, including media, financials, telecommunications, healthcare, life sciences, government, intelligence, smart cities, and cultural heritage. It enables applications capabilities as varied as business intelligence, analytics, search, content management, knowledge management, recommendation systems, information extraction and data integration.
We encourage results and ideas from companies large and small. We welcome contributions about success stories as well as experience reports and discussions of obstacles that stand in the way of large-scale adoption of semantic technologies.
Across all submissions, emphasis should be put on demonstrating the business value and impact created by using semantic technologies to address real life problems.
Come and join us at the ISWC 2018 industry track to share your experiences with the largest community of researchers and practitioners in the Semantic Web field!
