The 13th International Conference of the Conference on Information and
Knowledge Management (CIKM) is the premier conference on information retrieval.
This conference is the only conference whose primary purpose is to foster collaberation
between the information retrieval, database, and knowledge management communities.
The conference started in 1992 and has steadily grown to be widely accepted as a key forum to present new findings in information retrieval, database systems, data mining, and knowledge management. Attendees hear about very recent research results and are able to speak directly with their developers. Typically about 300 people attend the conference from academia, industry, and government. Numerous graduate students attend CIKM to present their papers and to learn more about the field. A best student paper is awarded as well. Sponsorship Opportunities CIKM offers a variety of sponsorship opportunities suitable for small as well as large organizations. Sponsors of CIKM will gain visibility for their companies, demonstrate their support of critical information retrieval related research and development, and contribute to the success of the conference.
