Knowledge management has emerged in the last two decades as a key activity for value creation as well as for economic and social organizational memory building. Culture and organizational learning, supported by modern information and communication technologies, are responsible for multiple knowledge leverage processes, which when properly managed contribute to dynamic organizational sustainability. These and other related topics will be discussed and explored at the 16th European Conference on Knowledge Management. This will be an excellent opportunity to leverage our knowledge, to share our experiences and to reinforce our academic and scientific networks. Continuing the success of the ECKM conference series since 2000, the 2015 conference will provide an international communication forum bringing together academia and industry for discussing the progress made and addressing the challenges faced by continuous learning in knowledge-intensive organizations.
