We are now accepting proposals to speak at Enterprise Search Summit 2009, which will be held May 12-13 in New York. (Pre-conference sessions May 11).
Click here to submit a proposal. The deadline for submitting proposals
is November 10, 2008.
We seek dynamic speakers who can talk knowledgeably about detailed aspects of how to implement and maximize search within an organization. Search can no longer
be viewed as a stand-alone application. It is increasingly part of everything we do and has become the de facto gateway to information in the enterprise. This year’s
Summit will examine the ways to leverage search tools, information architecture, classification, and other strategies and technologies to enable information access.
Ours is a well-informed, tech-savvy audience, so proposals should be specific and detailed. Consider topic such as:
- Search as the gateway to enterprise information
- Integrating search into other enterprise systems
- Customizing your search solution/ Task-specific search
- Compliance, records management, and eDiscovery with effective search
- Migrating your search engine
- Social search and social tagging strategies & solutions
- Search-enabled decision making
- Business intelligence, data mining
- Optimizing your interface
- Navigational tools—context, facets, entity extraction, clustering, and visualization
- Emerging trends, the future of search
- Improving human-computer interaction/ Good interaction design
- Overcoming information overload
- Categorization techniques
- Specific strategies for enhancing an existing solution
If you represent a company that has an enterprise search software product, your best bet to be on our program is to collaborate with a customer to submit a case study
to be presented by them, following the guidelines above.
Thank you. I look forward to receiving your proposals.
