Personal Message from the Conference Chairs

In a context where information and communication technologies blur the boundaries between physical and digital, and between human and machine activity, Knowledge becomes the key to sustainable socio-economic development. Over the last two decades, the European Conference on Knowledge Management has served as an ideal platform for a debate on the way we can –as KM academics and practitioners, inform the efforts for a sustainable growth in the application of digital technologies and technology-driven products and services in business and society. As our socio-economic ecosystem moves into a new phase of digital transformation, and ECKM enters its third decade of success, I look forward to welcoming you all to Coventry University in September 2020.
