KnowTech Highlights

Written by Felix on October 9th, 2008

The main German Knowledge Management conference KnowTech took place yesterday and today. I didn’t plan to attend due to the fact that two KM colleagues from SAP had planned to travel to Frankfurt anyway. The strange thing is that only very few of the 500 participants (+ 25% in comparison to last year) have blogged feedback from the conference:

  • No blog feature on the conference webpage (only in German)
  • Michael Koch (Blog communixx) compiled some not very enthusiastic points in three posts (in German)
  • Frank Koch and Christoph Rauhut confirm this impression in their compilation (Blog Projektmanagement 2.0) of the conference with the following findings: I. German companies are still beginners regarding “Enterprise 2.0″ II. No presentation dealt with the question on how to best embed KM into daily work without additional effort III. The importance of tag management to be able to use Folksonomies in an enterprise context, and IV. the lack of web 2.0 support for the KnowTech conference (e.g. no TwitterBoard)

And believe it or not, that’s it (according to Google Blog Search and Technorati.com)… So, I didn’t miss a lot, did I?
